Are faculty and students required to have practical or “real-world experiences” in community and economic development?
Our philosophy is that a quality graduate education in community and economic development must involve educators, researchers, and practitioners with an interest in the field, as well as those with significant hands-on experience. The field of community and economic development and the interests, knowledge, perspectives, and skills of people who work in, or are interested in, the field are very diverse. The curriculum accommodates these divergent interests, but the goal is to provide a solid and integrated foundation from which students consider the issues that face professionals working in community and economic development. The program welcomes students with practical experience as well as those who are new to the field of community and economic development and have no “real-world experience.
