Internship/Job Placement

Another academic year has started and we have another fine group of real estate majors and/or minors and concentrations. The Center for Real Estate and Urban Economic Studies is in the process of assembling resumes of internship candidates and graduating majors in Real Estate as well as other allied disciplines. Real estate students have or are in the process of completing what many consider to be one of the best academic real estate programs in the country.

The Center offers the Resume Book accessible online. You are welcome to register your company's profile on the system. Upon completion, you will receive an email confirming your registration. For more information about the process, please call Debbie Philips at (860) 486-3227 or email your request to recenter@business.uconn.edu.
