SUNY Works Campus Partnerships

SUNY Works was a project funded by Lumina Foundation which focused on increasing degree attainment for adult non-traditional students at certain pilot campuses. The goal of the project was to utilize cooperative education and internship opportunities as spaces for workplace skills development and gaining experience in students' desired fields.

The goal of SUNY Works continues to be supporting the growth of experiential/applied learning opportunities for students across the entire SUNY system, especially in the areas of cooperative education and internships, and continuing to provide system-level support for students, employers, faculty, and entire campuses.
