Public Policy Specialization Courses

Developing and implementing forward-thinking public policy and engaging citizens in the process are critical to the health of our society. Public and nonprofit administrators who are intimately involved in both executive and legislative board policy and decision-making play an important role in policy development and implementation. By allowing you to apply your research in practical ways, the Public Policy specialization prepares you not only to form and understand policies, but also to manage the full implementation and acceptance of them.
