During the 2008-2009 fiscal year, there were 41 students who fulfilled their second or third rotations with new employers. Although we counted them in our yearly stats for placements, we did not include them in the salary survey for starting salaries as many employers use #of credits and previous experience in determining salary. We would also like to acknowledge that the rise in the number of students changing employers is a direct result of the economic conditions facing many co-op students.
