Whether they graduated in 1950 or 2010, Northeastern alumni consistently cite cooperative education as the key element that made the greatest impact in their career paths: the essential experience that showed them what was possible and how to attain it. Whether they went on to work for co-op employers after graduation, attended graduate school, traveled abroad, or pursued other options, our alumni have used the understanding, confidence, and knowledge they developed through co-op to build lives of richness and fulfillment.
That is why co-op is a favorite way for alumni to stay connected to Northeastern, and why alumni participation is vital to the continuing success of co-op. You can hire or mentor a co-op student in your business; share your favorite co-op story with Northeastern; make a gift to support the co-op program; or engage your alma mater and the past, present, and future of co-op by getting involved with the Alumni Association.
