[Geog_Jobs] MORPC Local Government Summer Internship

[Lynch, Amy]

The Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission (MORPC) is hiring local government interns in a variety of areas, including planning, parks and recreation, and GIS. See the ad in the MORPC careers section for a full list: https://www.governmentjobs.com/careers/morpc?<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.governmentjobs.com%2Fcareers%2Fmorpc%3F&data=04%7C01%7Cgeog_jobs%40listserv.ohio.edu%7C67dff1c149df446035cc08d8b65f1808%7Cf3308007477c4a70888934611817c55a%7C0%7C0%7C637459866825174865%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=QDAwulbDHxlV8%2BJZ5whKiSXlK6ASxhjub4fwH9aIDpw%3D&reserved=0>

The MORPC Local Government Summer Internship Program is designed to provide qualified college students with the opportunity to obtain practical work experience with a local government within the 15 County (central Ohio) area to prepare them for possible careers in public service. MORPC member governments are eligible to participate as hosts.  MORPC coordinates the placement to match the host’s request. The hosts will make the final interview and selection decision. In the past, Geography students have been matched with communities throughout southeastern and central Ohio.

Interns work for a host for a minimum of 12 hours to a maximum of 40 hours per week for a 14-week period. Interns may gain applicable knowledge to enhance classroom learning through working with current government professionals as well as insights on the services provided by a regional planning commission. Interns have the opportunity to attend commission meetings, program work groups, and/or special MORPC-sponsored events and forums during their internship program period.

The hiring process is ongoing, so get your application in soon! The manager of the internship program indicated to me a few days ago that they are still accepting applications and looking for strong students to match with communities.
