Cooperative Admissions Examination (COOP) Practice Exam

The minimum number of hours for research experience under the Educational Enhancement Program (EEP) is 450. This requirement is designed to ensure that participants engage in a meaningful amount of hands-on research that contributes to their academic and professional development. The 450 hours not only allow for immersion in research activities but also facilitate building essential skills and knowledge in the field.

Participants who reach this threshold of 450 hours are more likely to gain valuable insights and experiences that enhance their understanding of research methodologies and practices, which is crucial for success in academic settings. The structure of the requirement helps maintain a standard that balances experience and accessibility for students who may be pursuing other commitments alongside their research endeavors.
