International Programs


In 2005, Wentworth expanded its international opportunities for students through a relationship with Institute Technology Tralee in Ireland. The Department of Architecture continued its one- semester study-abroad program with students in Berlin, Germany and Montpellier, France in the fall and spring semesters.

Cooperative Education Program

Cooperative education (co-op) is a structured educational experience integrating classroom studies with learning through related work experiences. It enhances the student's ability to connect theory with work-world applications. Wentworth Institute of Technology requires all students enrolled in day bachelor programs to complete at least two co-op work terms (12 to 15 weeks each). Following their sophomore year of study, students alternate work terms with classroom studies blending the theoretical and practical aspects of the Wentworth education.

Wentworth's co-op program is unique in that it is one of only a handful of cooperative education programs in the nation that is required of all day undergraduate students.

Co-op Schedule


Wentworth's co-op program is unique in providing 8-12 months of co-op experience within a four-year program rather than a five-year sequence found at many colleges. It is the largest engineering technology co-op program in the country and ranks as the second largest co-op program in New England.
