Landscape Architect/Urban Planning Intern - Community Development (Summer 2026) - Louisville
20 hours ago
Job description
Learning begins in the classroom but there's no better place to gain real-world experience than with Stantec. Interns are an integral part of our teams, working to solve some of the world's most complex challenges.
As an intern, you'll work alongside our experienced practitioners and with our clients and communities. This hands-on experience will equip you with practical skills, build your network, and provide opportunities that set you up for success.
Strong communities don't just happen—they're built. They're creatively imagined, collaboratively planned, and readied to face tomorrow with optimism. At Stantec, we're driving the future of Community Development. Our experts lead their fields, collaborating on projects that are as technically challenging as they are impactful, creative, and fulfilling. We're a place where you can apply your passion—and find endless opportunities to help make communities more equitable, resilient, and livable.
Your Opportunity
As a landscape architecture/urban planning intern within our Community Development business line, you will have the opportunity to work on a variety of public and private sector projects and have a significant role in our Brownfields redevelopment practice. Our Brownfields Asset Transformation team works with communities in creating a vision for their redevelopment projects, often including design, implementation, and funding plans and reports. Our team works long-term with communities to implement these plans in a range of project scales and scopes across the nation. Projects often translate from working with municipalities to developers, and collaboration with allied consultants, both inside Stantec and from other practices. Our project variety is vast, as every community has different redevelopment challenges to overcome. We work in areas with large environmental challenges, transit-oriented desires, resiliency planning aspirations, affordable housing needs, outdoor space development opportunities, and more. Opportunities to work on non-brownfields redevelopment projects will also be available. We connect the people, places, and resources that take a project from concept to reality.
Your Key Responsibilities
- Work on the Brownfields Asset Transformation team under the direction of licensed Landscape Architects and planners to assist in the development of projects throughout the nation, in close collaboration with Stantec's Buildings, Community Development, Urban Places, Environmental Services, and other project teams.
- Understand and execute the site inventory and analysis processes necessary to initiate a project. Conduct research of local ordinances, land development codes, and local and regional regulations to develop project due diligence reports communicating site and design feasibility.
- Develop and produce graphics and maps to illustrate due diligence findings and analysis observations.
- Investigate design variables, programmatic owner/client requirements, budget constraints, site opportunities, market conditions, and environmental and brownfield regulations.
- Understand building operation, pedestrian/ vehicular circulation, accessibility, planting design, site grading, and stormwater management needs to successfully lay out a site.
- Prepare schematic, conceptual, design development, and construction document-level plans for various project sites.
- Prepare renderings and diagrammatic graphics using various computer programs to support project visioning.
- Collaborate with a multi-disciplinary team on design and visioning for Area Wide Plans, Corridor Studies, Site Specific Plans, and Neighborhood Redevelopment Plans.
- Support brownfield grant projects through a variety of redevelopment tasks.
- Prepare and lay out presentation boards, design documents, reports, and presentations.
- Support marketing and business development efforts.
- Participate in meetings and presentations.
- Perform other duties as needed.
Pay Transparency: In compliance with pay transparency laws, pay ranges are provided for positions in locations where required. Please note, the final agreed upon compensation is based on individual education, qualifications, experience, and work location. At Stantec certain roles are bonus eligible. Actual compensation for part-time roles will be pro-rated based on the agreed number of working hours per week.
Benefits Summary: Regular full-time and part-time employees (working at least 20 hours per week) have access to medical, dental, and vision plans, a wellness program, health saving accounts, flexible spending accounts, 401(k) plan, employee stock purchase program, life and accidental death & dismemberment (AD&D) insurance, short-term/long-term disability plans, emergency travel benefits, tuition reimbursement, professional membership fee coverage and paid family leave. Regular full-time and part-time employees will receive ten paid holidays in each calendar year. In addition, employees will be eligible to accrue vacation between 10 and 20 days per year and eligible for paid sick leave (and if more generous, in accordance with state and local law).
Temporary/casual employees have access to 401(k) plans, employee stock purchase program, and paid leave, in accordance with state and local law.
The benefits information listed above may not apply to union positions because benefits for such positions are governed by applicable collective bargaining agreements
