Urban Semester Program
Learn and Intern
|
|
The Urban Semester Program offers students a tremendous opportunity for service learning and public service. We live in an urban world and for over 50 years, the Urban Semester Program has allowed students from all across UConn to put what they study to work addressing real-world urban issues and challenges. For many, the program is a life-transformative experience that helps shape their career plans while, at the same time, contributing to the Hartford community.
Students intern in human service agencies, government offices and community and non-profit organizations. Urban Semester students work on issues facing the city, from education, poverty, homelessness, youth issues and crime to the challenges of a changing economy. Through two weekly seminars, they study and explore the issues in greater depth, taking part in thought-provoking discussions with community leaders and field trips throughout the city.
Open to all UConn students and all majors.
Students will earn 15 credits toward their degree.
Deadline is April 15th, 2022.
