"My Co-Op experience has opened doors for me in the field of Information Technology by teaching me professionalism, corporate etiquette, small talk, & business communication. The Gradate Co-op Program offered by Drexel is unbeatable compared to the 12 week internship offered by other universities. In comparison to my friends at neighboring universities, I have learned more and this learning has been practical."
