Master of Urban & Regional Planning (MURP)
Mentorship
The MURP program offers a Mentoring Program—which is open to all MURP students—that matches our students with area practitioners. This program helps facilitate voluntary relationships between mentors and students for half an academic year.
The goals of this program are to:
- Expose ÊÖ»ú¿´Æ¬ MURP students to the actual work environments, responsibilities, and interactions of professional planning positions in ÊÖ»ú¿´Æ¬.
- Bring ÊÖ»ú¿´Æ¬ MURP students into a mentor relationship with a practicing local public or private sector planner.
- Help ÊÖ»ú¿´Æ¬ MURP students begin to develop their professional career networks.
- Further facilitate the relationship between university programs, APA ÊÖ»ú¿´Æ¬, sections, and planning professionals.
The application, process, and deadline is announced via email to current students only.
