Co-Op Program for High School and Undergrad Technical School Students
In 2012, Longwood Gardens piloted a Co-Op program for students enrolled in their senior year of high school or enrolled in an undergraduate technical college program.
The Co-Op Program was developed at Longwood Gardens to build capacity in public horticulture through hands-on training coupled with academic learning through the students’ home institution.
Co-Op students may apply for opportunities in Horticulture, Education and various shops within the Facilities Department (Carpentry, Paint, HVAC, Mechanics, Masonry, Welding, Power Plant, etc.).
For more information, please call the Office of Domestic and International Studies at 610-388-5401.
