UC computer science student earns co-op medal

May 4, 2026

University of Cincinnati student Nathan Nguyen has always been inspired by the idea of learning while doing. From early internships in high school to hands-on engineering projects at UC, real-world experience has been a top priority. Nguyen will graduate with a bachelor’s degree in computer science this spring on the heels of five impressive co-op jobs and receiving the 2026 Herman Schneider Co-op Medal from UC’s College of Engineering and Applied Science. Named after Dean Herman Schneider, who invented co-op in 1906, this award is given to one graduating student each year who has demonstrated exceptional success on co-op.
