||
| Class Description: Co-op | ||
| Class number 660 | Credit 1.00 | Prerequisite 3 years of technical drawing |
|
This course would provide a very worthwhile experience that could not be provided in school. Upon completing of this course, the student may be hired by the industry if conditions are right. If not, the experience gained would be invaluable as far as future work in another or additional studies in trade school of an university. |
