  • Description: <jats:p>To encourage Computer Science programs not in the co-op tradition (most are probably in Arts and Science Colleges) to once again consider the benefits of establishing such a program. It gives specific corporations more than an abstract reason for assisting computer science programs in any of the various ways which have been suggested (financial contributions, sharing staff, faculty interns, etc.).</jats:p> <jats:p>Cooperative education for computer science majors is beneficial for the students, the employers, and the schools.</jats:p>
