In This video, "Co-Op Programs Vs Internship Programs How They Work & Which Is The Better Fit For The Student." We go over the differences between Co-op's and Internships for college students. These terms are often used interchangeably, but they are different opportunities. In this article, we discuss everything you need to know about the differences between a co-op and an internship along with a section of frequently asked questions.

Co-op vs. internship
The primary difference between a co-op and an internship is the time invested in each program. Internships are brief work experience programs that last for about one semester and most are completed over the summer. Many college students participate in several internships throughout their time in school to gain experience in different positions. Co-ops usually last for a longer duration with your responsibilities increasing as your education progresses.

Co-ops are traditionally full-time, paid positions. "Internship" usually refers to a one-term work assignment, most often in the summer, but not always. Internships can be full- or part-time, paid or unpaid, depending on the employer and the career field.
