Cooperative Education Programs at Hershey Foods Corporation

Dairy Products Research, Hershey Foods Technical Center, Hershey, PA 17033

ABSTRACT

Students selected for co-op programs in dairy products research are usually in dairy-oriented programs. They may or may not come from universities with formal co-op programs. The major advantages of the program to the industry is that it provides trained candidates of proven performance to fill future staff positions as well as a pool of semi-professional talent to assist the current permanent staff on regular and special projects. Major disadvantages include the amount of time required to recruit and train new individuals as well as the proprietary nature of research and development work. Co-op programs at Hershey Foods are successful and growing.
