A Parent's Perspective
My son’s co-op experiences at IBM greatly enhanced his academic program, allowing him to gain
confidence in his technical abilities, and giving him professional contacts he maintains to
this day. He even had the opportunity to make a presentation to the president of IBM! RIT
prepared him very well for his software engineering career.”
