The Cooperative Education Program at NOVA seeks to serve the Annandale community, students and employers in the D.C. Metropolitan Area. Students who are enrolled at other campuses should speak to their deans or assistant deans about securing a faculty member to administer their internship. Students can earn up to 10 co-op internship credits and apply for professional experiences that compliment their degree programs. Employers can also benefit from the program by having access to talented and motivated students who are seeking experience in their professional/academic fields. The Co-Op Program is a wonderful way to recruit new employees who are eager to learn and build a foundation of knowledge and experience.
