Specifically, I am interested in the path that brought you to attend this class, what you hope to get out of the class, and your professional goals for the future. At a minimum, I would appreciate if your essay would cover the following: 1. For graduate students, the paper would include why you chose to attend graduate school in Urban Planning or a related field. This might include your undergraduate course of study and/or work experience that led you to apply to graduate school. For undergraduates, this would include why you have chosen to minor in Urban Planning and/or a related field and how you found out about urban planning as a profession. 2. What substantive areas of urban planning are you interested in and/or do you feel passionate about? These might include but are not limited to: affordable housing, transportation planning, public finance, environmental planning, social justice, sustainability etc.? Please describe how you developed your interest in these areas either through academic and/or professional pursuits. For undergraduates, if you do not have a specific urban planning-related interest, let me know about your major and other academic and professional interests. Are you interested in going to law school? 3. What are your career goals, i.e. where do you see your self in five years? Are you thinking that you would rather work in the public, private, or non-profit sector? What type of impact do you hope to have on the planning profession and the world? 4. Is there anything else about you not covered above that you would like to share that would help me make this class successful? Thanks! mailto:[email protected]
