Description: Gives students an opportunity to combine academic studies with on-the job training and experience-it's a great opportunity to work on exciting NASA projects, earn money, take advantage of an excellent benefit package and complete an education. There are a couple of important differences between the Co-op Program and an Internship. The Co-op Program requires students to alternate between periods of academic study with equal periods of work. Another distinction is the Co-op Program is designed to train and develop students during participation in the Program for the possibility of conversion for full time employment upon graduation. An internship is generally during one academic term, usually during the summer months, and does not allow for conversion to full time employment upon graduation. Some Centers may have Student Career Experience Program (SCEP), and Student Temporary Employment Program (STEP), which are both considered to be Co-op. The main difference between the two programs is SCEP may lead to permanent NASA employment whereas STEP is solely a temporary employment program. Eligibility: U.S. Citizen in attendance at an accredited college/university on a full-time basis; pursuing a degree in math, science, engineering or business; and enrollment in college/university Cooperative Education Program. Application Deadline: Each Center has a different application process and requirements for participation. Please contact the Center and/or Centers that most interest you in order to learn more about the Co-Op application procedures at their particular location.
