MSPPM Concentrations
The MSPPM core curriculum is broad by design. Every public policy professional requires a basic understanding of management and policy analysis, and our core curriculum is designed to prepare you adequately in those areas.
Although you're not required to declare a concentration, some students are interested in gaining more in-depth knowledge in a specific policy area and are encouraged to pursue a self-defined concentration. Most students, however, will find that their interests fit well within one of our pre-defined concentration areas.
