Hosting HUD Fellows

Recipients of the US Department of Housing & Urban Development’s Community Development Work Study Program fellowships are selected from among the entering classes of the Master of City Planning (MCP) degree program in the Department of City & Regional Planning.  IURD hosts the recipients. Fellowships allow students from under-represented backgrounds unique opportunities to work in the field supervised by the Community Partnerships Office (CPO). While providing a home base for addressing theoretical questions about community development issues, the CPO places Fellows with community-based agencies and departments of local government, giving them diverse assignments in community development, economic revitalization, small business assistance, neighborhood and community planning, and related fields. Over the course of the two-year city planning masters degree program, students typically find placements at three sites.
