Internships

The internship program provides City Planning graduate students with practical field experience and opportunities to explore the interface between planning theory and practice. As an intern, you'll have opportunities to revisit course material in a practical setting and experience full-time planning practice first-hand under the supervision of a practitioner.

 

Mentorship program

The Mentorship Program was launched by the University of Manitoba, the Manitoba Professional Planners Institute (MPPI) and the University of Manitoba Association of Planning Students (UMAPS) to strengthen ties between students and professional planners. Mentors meet with students on a casual basis to discuss course work, major degree project topics, internship opportunities and perhaps future career strategies.

Indigenous planning partnerships

The Indigenous Planning Studio is a 13-week master's-level course. Partnering First Nations identify the projects, with some input from the studio instructor to ensure the students have the skill-sets to properly support the work. While the instructor provides advice and direction to the students, and maintains contact with each partnering First Nation, the students are encouraged to work directly with their First Nation partners throughout the university term.


Departmental research

City Planning research explores issues of concern to Manitobans. Recent studies include age-friendly initiatives for Manitobans, strategies for population changes in rural areas and new growth in Indigenous urban property development.

Design studios

With a strong emphasis on collaborative practice and team work, studio courses engage students in work with local partners in urban neighbourhoods and rural towns, with the Manitoba Capital Region, and with Indigenous communities in the province. Studios provide a venue to synthesize and put into action lessons learned in the program’s core, option and elective seminar courses.

Program details

Expected duration: 2 years

Tuition and fees: Two years tuition, then continuing fees in subsequent years (refer to Graduate tuition and fees)

The City Planning graduate program offers two streams to complete the degree – one concludes with a Capstone Project, the other a Thesis/Practicum. Five core courses are required of all students in the program, along with two courses from a roster of option courses. Students in the Capstone Stream are required to complete two electives; those in the Thesis/Practicum may take electives to support their particular research interests.

Accreditation

The City Planning program at the University of Manitoba is an accredited program (2020-2025), which has met the standards of the Professional Standards Board (PSB) for the Planning Profession in Canada.  Graduates are eligible for Registered Professional Planner (RPP) status after gaining relevant professional experience. Through a reciprocal agreement with the American Institute of Certified Planners (AICP), the AICP recognizes Canadian planning programs that have been accredited by the PSB.
