The program you need for the career you want

The MAPP program combines rigorous instruction in key components of public policy development with detailed analysis of specific public policy issues and fieldwork.

The program's core courses teach skills in political, economic, quantitative, and organizational analysis, with a practical focus on the solutions to complex public policy problems. With this foundation, students take one or more courses in a specialized concentration and a related internship or research thesis.

The entire program of 31 credit hours can be completed in one calendar year by full-time students, and within two years by those attending part-time.
