The University of Cincinnati operates a cooperative education program that integrates paid work experiences into the curriculum for its students. This program requires students to engage in paid work assignments at various employers across Cincinnati, the United States, and globally. The university ranks highly in the nation for this co-op program, achieving the third spot nationally among public universities in the 2027 U.S. News rankings for co-ops and internships.
