Experiential Learning
Experiential learning, anchored by our signature cooperative education program, lies at the heart of a Northeastern education. Over the past century, the University has perfected the integration of study and practice, creating an unparalleled way to learn.
Our students make an impact on the world - before they graduate - through our signature co-op program, research, civic engagement, and global experience.
These points of real-world engagement-at a university that is a world leader in experiential learning-enrich classroom studies, fuel intellectual and personal growth, and provide students with opportunities to explore their path and discover their passion.
It's the world's most powerful learning experience.
