This program is ideal for students seeking a challenging education with an emphasis on both the long-term principles and practical skills necessary for a professional career. Public sector jobs (local, state and federal) held by CRP graduates include: local government land use planner, community development director, social services staff, impact assessment specialist, environmental planner, emergency services director. Private sector employers include: planning consultant firms, private developers, utility companies. Nonprofit and research employers include: sustainable business organizations, economic development corporations, advocacy groups, political associations, state research bureaus. Increasing opportunities in nonprofit and philanthropic enterprise have resulted from strong growth in assets and expanded activities in the nonprofit sector.
