Environmental Policy MPA
University of Oregon
Description
The master of public administration (MPA) program at the University of Oregon promotes evidence-based decision making and the efficient and ethical stewardship of societal and environmental resources by professionals in the public and nonprofit sectors. We support this purpose by training a diverse cohort of students from the U.S. and abroad to be effective administrators, analysts, and advocates in their communities. The curriculum offers a close connection between multidisciplinary, policy-oriented research and opportunities for real-world applications. Students are supported in creating a customized course plan that allows for the most effective use of their time as full- or part-time students. Our program combines a rigorous academic approach in the development of analytical and managerial skills with highly experiential learning opportunities.
