Definitely take a look at Purdue. They will fall within your budget and they have a huge partnership with Eli Lily. There is a ton of research happening on campus in your student’s area of interest. https://lprc.purdue.edu

Pitt is another co op/internship focused school. RPI has its RPI Experience program.

Then there are the co-op schools like Northeastern, Cincinnati, and Drexel where working is part of the graduation requirement.
