Create Your Own International Co-op

If you have found your own international job or if you plan to do an independent search for a position abroad, you can apply now. Students must submit all required documentation three weeks prior to the scheduled first day of co-op for which the student is seeking to register their employment.

Because of the constantly evolving complexities in international relations and each student’s unique circumstances, the Steinbright Career Development Center is unable to provide country-specific guidance to students regarding country entry and work visas. Students can work with their co-op advisors to identify potential paths to gain work permission, but there is no implied or express guarantee that Steinbright, its staff, nor Drexel University will be able to assist me in securing an appropriate work visa. 

For assistance with your international co-op job search, contact your co-op advisor or the international co-op team.

Study + Co-op Option

Drexel's study abroad office offers some programs with a built-in co-op option. Students who choose this option may find it easier to search for a co-op placement while in-country, with assistance from the host university. Alternatively, students who participate in study abroad can search for their own international co-op opportunity to pursue once the study abroad program is complete.
