<p>If you’re talking about engineering (and with Stevens in the mix I suspect that might be true), many schools offer co-op programs. It’s fairly common for schools to have co-op programs for engineering majors, even if they don’t offer co-op to other majors.</p>
<p>Schools with established co-op programs have partner employers located all over the country. It’s very common for students to do co-op rotations nowhere near their college. Your son could go to Northeastern, RIT, Drexel, etc., and work co-ops close to home (or far away if desired).</p>
