Master of Urban Planning Degree
internships + career services
Although an urban planning-related internship is not required, the program encourages students to find work related to the profession and provides assistance to students in finding internships. The program funds numerous internships through grants and alumni gifts. The Michigan Neighborhood AmeriCorps Program provides positions for several urban planning students each year. The U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Community Development Work Study Program often supports internships for up to three low-income and minority students. The College's manager of community partnership programs identifies many internships for students.
The program provides assistance to students in finding professional planning positions after graduation. A part-time staff person maintains job and internship listings, arranges resume reviews, facilitates networking with alumni, provides information on good job searching techniques, maintains job web site connections, and connects students to the services of the UM Career Planning and Placement office.
