Advocate powerfully on behalf of the public, imagine new possibilities, and accomplish positive change in your workplace and in your community.
The Master of Public Administration is a graduate program that will prepare you to effectively serve the public good. Students in Evergreen's MPA program study current issues in an interdisciplinary context, learning the most important aspects of governance, management, and policy. Graduates go on to careers in the public sector, businesses, and non-profit organizations as leaders, managers, analysts, and effective advocates for change.
You will get a solid grounding in the core aspects of public administration. You'll also be able to specialize in one of three concentrations that match your goals and career.
Public & Nonprofit Administration: management, finance, and leadership
Public Policy: understanding, communicating, and shaping policy
Tribal Governance: management, policy, and leadership for indigenous organizations, governments, and those who work with them
