Manufacturing Co-Op Program
We are proud to provide support & education for students interested in a manufacturing career through our Manufacturing Co-Op Program.
Objective
The goal of the C.L. Smith co-op program is to develop a partnership between students, C.L. Smith, and Southwestern Illinois College (SWIC) to provide tuition assistance and employment opportunities to SWIC students in exchange for a post-graduate employment commitment from the participating student.
Eligibility:
Students (current or prospective) at SWIC are eligible to apply for the C.L. Smith Co-Op program. To be eligible, the student must enroll in the Associates in Applied Science degree program for Industrial Maintenance Mechanics. Students must be full-time students in the SWIC program, and maintain at least a ‘C’ grade point average throughout the program. Failure to achieve a ‘C’ grade point level may result in termination of the agreement by C.L. Smith, with the student responsible for reimbursement of all C.L. Smith paid educational expenses.
