Discover the Opportunities Experiential Learning Can Bring Through Cooperative Education at Antioch
Live a life
of intention.
As an Antiochian, youtogether we
will win victories for humanity.
First, you will join a
collaborative community.
Antioch is a special place. Your voice will directly contribute to building a better Antioch College every day. Students and faculty collaborate closely on learning. All Antiochians contribute to community governance. Together, we find ways for everyone to belong.
Next, you will discover
and ask questions.
You’ll be empowered to ask big questions and start looking for the answers. Expert faculty will help guide you with knowledge in the arts, humanities, sciences, and social sciences, both in the classroom and beyond so that you can put the liberal arts in action.
You will engage in
real-world experiences.
Antiochians don’t just sit in a classroom learning about the world. They put ideas into action and engage communities. Your experiences will take you off campus through our Cooperative Education Program, or “Co-op,” including perhaps internationally. You will accrue high-quality experience in businesses, non-profit organizations, and community projects as you find your own path to meaningful work, at Antioch and after.
You will create
a self-designed major.
You get to combine, experiment, and create something unique to your interests by drawing from the many courses, experiences, and unique opportunities available at Antioch. You will work with faculty advisors on how to put together your own blend. You might consider signature focus areas that span our curriculum: Sustainability, Justice and Community Studies, Social Entrepreneurship and Innovation, Global and Transnational Studies, Community Engaged Arts.
Then, you will become a force
for positive change.
Since the college’s founding, Antioch’s students and alumni have worked toward social and ecological justice, in their professions and in their communities. Our mission, to “win victories for humanity,” is woven through our curriculum, campus life, and alumni engagement the world over. This is the liberal arts in action.
We’re an active community.
You will get real experience.
Full-time Work (Co-Op) Experiences
The most formative experiences I’ve had at Antioch have happened with my community.”
Stand for Justice
Antioch College stands in solidarity with our past present and future Black community members.
