International Co-op Program Process

GCC will send you a welcome email asking you to fill out a pre-placement questionnaire, including resume upload. The welcome email will also include a prompt to schedule a
pre-placement meeting.
​
The pre-placement meeting is an opportunity for GCC to learn more about your background and career or academic goals as well as provide context for international co-op opportunities in the locations that the College of Engineering is offering.

After this meeting, you will reconfirm your commitment to participate in the program and choose the location you are most interested in for your co-op. GCC will then begin the placement process.
