I work full-time at a position that was not deemed relevant for PER. How can I fulfill this requirement?

We generally recommend that students in your position either seek out stretch assignments at work or do something similar. The purpose of the Professional Experience Requirement is to help bring your specialization coursework to life outside the classroom as well as give you new opportunities to help you professionally once you graduate from NYU Wagner.

We understand the difficulty for students who work full-time, so they are encouraged to reach out to Wagner's Office of Career Services for guidance. 

In terms of fulfilling the PER, please review our PER FAQ webpage for more information. If you are still unsure, we strongly recommend you to schedule an appointment with an OCS Career Advisor via the NYU Wagner Career Directory to discuss your PER options in more detail.
