Cooperative Education and Internships The Career Advantage Network (CAN) is one of the advantages students have to gain relevant work experience through various experiential learning opportunities. The program benefits students who gain firsthand knowledge of their future careers, as well as employers, who state that they are looking for students with career-related experiences in their field of study.
Experiential learning may include cooperative education, practicums, internships, clinical/field-based experiences, student teaching and service learning. Students who meet specified academic requirements are eligible for work assignments through the Center for Career Management (CCM). Participating students are recognized as full-time students at The University of Akron when working on an approved cooperative education/internship field assignment and when complying with the rules and regulations of the cooperative education programs.
