"Having a co-op at Chevron enables the student to experience several different areas of the company while providing broad visibility for the student among the hiring managers. The student can start to determine what type of work interests him/her which is invaluable when job offers are in front of them. The company can also judge the student's performance and determine where his/her skills fit the best. It is a win-win situation for all involved."
- Thad Sauvain, Process Engineering Manager (Chevron)
“CU’s co-op program enables Bend Research to access talented young engineers in a way that facilitates longer term relationships often leading to full time employment. The mutually beneficial experience injects a progressive mind set and work ethic to the programs at Bend Research and the students receive career mentoring and real world experience. As such it is one of our most valued university connections and most efficient means of identifying successful long time employees.”
- Dana Settell, Vice President, Alliances (Bend Research)
The CU Co-op Program provides us with young aspiring engineers whose skills and efforts make daily contributions to the success of our organization. Many of our breakthrough developments would not have been possible without the contributions of our CU co-op students."
