For additional information on ULI, please visit www.uli.org.

Overview of Internship:

The Emerging Trends series—Europe, Americas, and Asia Pacific—is one of the longest-running and most visible of all ULI products. It is a trends and forecast publication and is jointly undertaken by ULI, through the Capital Markets Center, and PwC. Management of the process and content is the responsibility of ULI.

For the fourth year in a row, ULI is implementing changes in the process and content and the normally tight timing of the project is now even more so. The process ramps up in late spring/early summer and the intern would work directly with the Senior Vice President and Senior Associate to carry out supporting tasks.

For example, a key component of the Emerging Trends research is one-on-one recorded interviews carried out by the senior team with property owners and developers, institutional and equity investors/managers, lenders, and advisers. The intern’s responsibilities would be as follows:

• Help transcribe, summarize, and distill the interviews, with the goal of identifying new trends and ideas.
• Assist in researching data sources, various approaches to analysis and presentation of data, as well as be involved in strategic planning and structuring the process.

Support for other Capital Markets projects may be required, as they arise. Tasks would be of similar nature to those described above.

Requirements:

Strong candidates will be currently enrolled graduate students in real estate, economics, urban planning, or a closely related field, or undergraduates in a related field. Candidates should have good project management and research capabilities. Strong written, oral, and verbal communication skills are a must.

The ideal candidate would enjoy involvement in all aspects of project operations, including team collaboration; transcription and analysis of “live” interviews; strategic planning; macro-economic, real estate financial, and urban issues; data base development and manipulation; and the challenge of graphic presentation of complex data.

Proficiency in Word and a working knowledge of Excel is required.

Hours:

The ULI summer intern program will run from June 6 through August 7. Workweeks are 37.5 hours.
