在这里学什么？

The Master of Public Policy (MPP) prepares students for challenging careers in the development, implementation and evaluation of public policies that require both the comprehension of complex urban issues and the application of tangible solutions. The degree places heavy emphasis on empirical methods essential in the public policy analysis. The program is organized around select public policy issues that focus on the economic/community development, environmental or healthcare challenges in the urban milieu. Students also have the option of designing an emphasis in an area of their own design, with the approval of the program director.

Because urban issues are complex, the program is interdisciplinary in character, curriculum content, and faculty. It provides a stimulating and inclusive environment for intellectual curiosity, rigorous inquiry and creativity and for developing new knowledge and putting it to work in the service of environmentally and economically sustainable healthy urban communities to ultimately improve the quality of life. It is designed to attract candidates that have technical expertise but desire to advance their knowledge of the dynamics of public policy in twenty-first century metropolitan regions.

Students develop the knowledge and methodological skills needed to analyze, question, challenge and shape urban policy. They draw on a core of economics, political science and sociology to analyze and interpret multiple types of data in order to critically evaluate problems and provide alternative courses of action.
