<p>I will be a sophmore in the fall, majoring in economics, and want to do my first coop in the summer of '10. What coop class should I sign up for? Thanks.</p>
<p>Im pretty sure that each major will conduct its own coop class, or its grouped by colleges.</p>
<p>The economics department uses Professor Basu as their co-op advisor, so you need to sign up for EXED 2000 with Basu as the professor. There are two offered in the fall semester. However if your first co-op is next summer II/fall then you should take the co-op class in the spring.</p>
<p>Email your adviser or the coop adviser for your major and ask.</p>
<p>You don’t even have to ask… If you’re economics, it’s Professor Basu’s sections (pick one) of EXED 2000.</p>
<p>Are you sure when, though? When I was a freshman, I was told to take it second semester of my freshman year (although I was going on coop first semester of my middler year). I know it’s changed since then, which is why you are saying the semester immediately before, but who’s to say it hasn’t changed again? That’s all I was thinking.</p>
<p>I am an economics major and asked Basu already. She is the co-op advisor for both the economics and mathematics departments, and because of that she requested that if possible a student should wait to take the co-op class in the semester before because it is easier for the student and herself that way. A do know of particular majors that take the co-op class their freshman year, like most biology majors. You are of course allowed to take the co-op next semester no matter what, but it is preferred by the advisor to take it second semester.</p>
