SDAPA Support for Student Internships - The San Diego Section of the American Planning Association (SDAPA) supports students who are preparing to pursue careers in the planning field. As part of our supportive efforts, we are providing an active employment/internship assistance program which functions as an intermediary between the students and the planning business community at large.

While SDAPA does not guarantee employment, every possible effort is made to assist students in pursuing work experience in the diverse planning profession. The San Diego Section of APA will accept and post internship opportunities for undergraduates and/or graduate students who are actively engaged in the pursuit of a career in the field with a planning emphasis. Intern positions will be posted on our jobs page at no charge.

We encourage you to participate in our efforts. Please download, complete and submit the form below to Kevin Grant at kgrant@pmcworld.com.
