Getting Started

Getting started with the Engineering Professional Practice program is as easy as 1, 2, 3!

  1. Complete an Interfase profile – Visit the Interfase website and setup a new profile. A resume is required to complete the online profile.**
  2. Attend Orientation – An experienced Co-op Ambassador will review your resume, create an office file for you (agreement form and photo), and answer preliminary questions about the program.*
  3. Meet with a Professional Practice advisor – After orientation, stop by the front desk to request an appointment with your co-op/internship advisor, who will go over specifics, such as company interest and travel opportunities. A resume is required to be uploaded into your profile 24 hours prior to your appointment. Failure to do so will result in cancellation of the meeting. Students with last names starting with A-L meet with Joyce, M-Z with Suzanne.

*Stop by the front desk in 161 Zeanah Engineering Complex, email coop@utk.edu, or call 974-5323.
**Email coop@utk.edu to request instructions or a resume template, if needed.
