Did You Know?
As a Kettering University student, starting your freshman year, you will alternate between three month terms in Kettering's laboratory based engineering, computer science, or management programs and a paid professional co-op experience with one of Kettering's 400+ corporate partners located across the U.S.
Just think, as a freshman, while working during your co-op terms, you'll earn a total of $10-$15K a year. That's a nice income for working two six month terms. Not to mention the two and a half years of work experience you will accumulate on your resume while earning your degree. It's almost like getting another scholarship each year!
