Majors: Information About Internships
Ø In the competitive field of Environmental Planning or Science, it is an advantage to have prior experience via internship
Ø Most agencies/organizations require cover letter and resume. Have your final drafts checked by your advisor before sending.
Ø Many planning organizations request GIS experience. If possible take the course before an internship that applies.
Ø Suggestions by former internship students: an open mind, good attitude, ability to adapt quickly to new situations (example: training), social/communication skills are very helpful. Also, do not be afraid to try new things and leave your mark on the area!
