GIVE YOUR CAREER A HEAD START.
Learning by doing is one of the best ways to prepare for
a career, and internships are increasingly important for
landing a great job after college.
Oregon State is a founding member of MECOP, a
statewide university/industry partnership that offers two
paid six-month internships during the third and fourth
years of a five-year program of study.
The Oregon State Career Development Center offers
assistance with applications and interviews. Industrial
interview teams select students for these programs and
place them with companies in Oregon and throughout the
Pacific Northwest.
INTERDISCIPLINARY PROGRAMS FOR
ENGINEERING AND FORESTRY.
For students interested in an engineering career in the
forest products industry, the College of Engineering and
the College of Forestry offer a joint five-year degree in
civil engineering and forest engineering.
EARN YOUR DEGREE FROM AN
ACCREDITED ENGINEERING SCHOOL.
All Oregon State engineering programs are fully
accredited and offer a Bachelor of Science degree through
a basic four-year curriculum. College of Engineering
students will spend their first two years building the
foundations for their major with a focus on engineering
principles, math, sciences or programming languages.
For those who are dual-enrolled in a degree partnership
program or transferring to OSU, our engineering
programs allow for the first two years to be taken at a
community college.
