Preparing for a Career<\/h2>\n

A foundation in urban development and social change can provide you with the knowledge and experience to pursue a career in urban and regional planning, community development, public administration, urban teaching, social work, and public policy.<\/p>\n

While you are at Clark, we encourage you to pursue internships in these areas so you can build experience for graduate school or a career.<\/p>\n

Summer internship opportunities abound for UDSC students in Worcester. Funding is available through the Lois and Robert Green Internship, and additional resources are available through Clark’s Career Connections Center<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Lois and Robert Green Internship<\/h3>\n

The urban development and social change (UDSC) concentration offers a paid summer internship for Clark undergraduate students thanks to a generous endowed fund established by Clark alumni Lois and Robert Green.<\/p>\n

Selected interns work with a Worcester city councilor, a city government agency, or a non-profit organization on projects and activities that address the concerns of neighborhood residents.<\/p>\n

The internship may be full time (35 to 40 hours per week) for six weeks, or part time during a longer period, from late-May to mid-August. The stipend is $2,400.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
