- The Center for Urban Redevelopment Excellence
at the University of Pennsylvania is thrilled to announce the
launch of the Rockefeller Foundation Redevelopment Fellowship
program. Made possible by a generous grant from The Rockefeller
Foundation, this new fellowship program is adapted from the Center’s
national fellowship and will serve to build long-term capacity

JANUARY
2007 |
- The Center for Urban Redevelopment Excellence
will not be requesting applications for a fourth round of its
national fellowship program within the coming six months. However,
we may have some additional opportunities available during that
timeframe. We are also exploring the possibility of making training
courses, site visits and other elements of the fellowship program
available to broader groups of participants. The responses that
some of you have made to our survey at http://www.zoomerang.com/survey.zgi?p=WEB225KE6DY3JY
have been very helpful in this effort.
- We will continue to use the Center's listserv
to make announcements about all of our new opportunities. Thank
you for your interest in large scale urban redevelopment, and
for your interest in our programs.

AUGUST
2006 |
- The Center for Urban Redevelopment
Excellence would like to announce that we will not be seeking
candidates for a fourth fellowship cohort that would start in
January, 2007. Our decision to postpone the offering
of a fourth cohort did not come lightly, and we will be using
the next 4 to 6 months to position the program to make fellowships
available in the future. We very much appreciate the interest
and support that everyone has shown in our program. We look forward
to making advancements that will continue to serve the urban redevelopment
field, and the talented individuals who contribute to its progress.
Please continue to participate in our listserv for announcements
regarding Center activities that may be of interest over the coming
months, as well as announcements of future fellowship rounds.
We will provide fellowship updates no later than the first quarter
of 2007.
- We would like to incorporate your input when
shaping the timing and application process for future fellowship
rounds. Please visit our future
fellowship programming survey on the web to share with us
your feedback and perspectives on how valuable you find our fellowship
program and other Center activities currently under consideration.
- In the coming months we will be considering
the development of additional and auxiliary services to those
provided by the fellowship program that could add value to the
industry and those seeking opportunities within it. Please click

under assessment:
