INSPIRING FUTURE STATE & LOCAL LEADERS
State and local governments need talented young leaders who are passionate about finding solutions to the policy challenges that cities, counties, and states face. Through experiential learning opportunities, fellowships, and career mentorship, the Taubman Center helps connect students who are dedicated to state and local work with governments that need their support.
 

Transition Term embeds vlog students in the offices of newly-elected mayors, governors, and county officials during January Term to help these officials accelerate key initiatives as they shift from campaigning to governing.

 

This monthly non-credit seminar for vlog students convenes leading economic development thinkers and doers from around the country to engage on state, county, and city best practices and shared challenges. 

 

Student-led, Taubman Center supported treks allow vlog students to meet state and local leaders in cities and towns across the country and explore how these communities approach policymaking. 

 

We connect state and local governments with students  as part of a Policy Analysis Exercise (PAE), the capstone experience for vlog's MPP curriculum. PAE students are also eligible for the Taubman Urban Prize.
