Ing Planning

Planning

 

Planning careers involve the development of strategies, schemes, or entities that address a current need.

Typical job titles for people who choose planning career paths include:

  • community planner
  • strategic planner
  • facility planner
  • futurist
  • landscape architect

Planning careers are generally found in larger organizations, in government organizations, or in specialty businesses, although they may also work for themselves and act as consultants.

Many different majors can lead to a planning career.  Most people in this career path begin their careers in other areas where they gain the experience and insight that go into planning.

People in planning careers need to be able to:

  • conceive a plan, destination, or ‘finished product’
  • analyze problems or situations
  • create ideas, plans, and strategies

Testimonials

  • I have learned what a schedule should be and what to do when balancing work and school.  This semester I set up my schedule to be as productive as possible.  However, productive does not necessarily mean busier.  Last semester my schedule ran for about 13 hours a day most days.  I shot myself in the foot, and most often I felt too drained after work and school to get homework or studying done.  Now I undertand what I should expect of myself and how to create an effective schedule.  On top of that, there will be a balance between work and school the rest of my college career.  I have learned that the best way to handle homework and assignments is to get them done between classes or during spare time at work.  This prevents me from having to deal with the lack of motivation or energy when I get home and avoid the numerous distractions that are much more appealing after the day..
