The Cooperative Education Program
The Cooperative Education Program enables students and employers to benefit from each other's needs and services. Students are able to gain experience and academic credit with the assistance of faculty and on-site professionals, and employers are able to gain access to a source of highly motivated and productive employees. If students meet the academic qualifications (having a 2.0 cumulative GPA; 15 earned credits and 6 credits in their major), students may complete a maximum of 3 semesters of co-op through NVCC and may enroll during any semester, however, they should submit materials 30 days prior to the end of the previous semester when they want to begin their co-op. Students may work part-time or full time and are required to register for the co-op course where they will complete a series of assignments. Internships may be paid or unpaid, but we do encourage employers to at least assist students in covering the cost of their transportation. Employers may learn more about their role in the co-op program at http://www.nvcc.edu/annandale/business/coop/benefits.htm

BME Industrial Internship Program
Since 2000, a total of 92 BME undergraduate internships have been "created" with 40 companies. These companies range from small, start-ups to large, multi-national corporations across Virginia, the Mid-Atlantic region, and the U.S. This year, we are expanding our program to include international industrial internships.
The BME Industrial Internship Program was created to provide opportunities for UVA students to gain practical experience working on real-world bioengineering-related projects in a corporate setting. Companies receive the benefit of engineering skills, current knowledge, leadership abilities and practical laboratory experience from our students. Qualified internship projects provide $4,000 from a company with $1,000 matching from a UVA grant from the National Science Foundation. The intern is an employee of the company for the summer and the UVA stipend is paid directly to the student to facilitate the process. Please contact Bobbe Nixon for further details and to discuss your potential projects.
