The Master of Public Policy is a two-year professional degree program. The curriculum consists of core courses that provide students with general analytic tools that are applicable in all policy areas, and culminates in an advanced, team-based final project that prepares students for real-world client interactions. For this final project, which is called the Applied Policy Project (APP), students work together and apply key skills in negotiation, analysis, research, presentation, and persuasion to advocate a “best” answer for a given policy problem. Additionally, elective and concentration courses provide content expertise in specific areas of public policy including the following: crime and drugs, education, employment and labor, environmental, health, international, nonprofit, regional development, social welfare, transportation, and urban poverty.
