Special Opportunities for Information Systems Students
UMBC has the largest cooperative education program in Maryland. Information Systems students participate in this program in greater numbers than any other major on campus. The department encourages all students to participate in co-op or internship programs. Students have found the experience invaluable in helping them understand class concepts and in getting a job after graduation. All co-op and many internship programs are paid positions. Many may also be used toward college credits.
