Program Overview
Adler University’s Master of Public Policy and Administration (MPPA) program prepares graduates to address today’s complex policy problems and advance a more just society. The program shapes future policymakers, public administrators, and community-based professionals seeking to impact systemic social change. Students in the program participate in small, dynamic classes with a cohort of learners and receive individualized attention to support their learning.
The innovative MPPA program addresses the content areas for public policy and administration programs defined by the Canadian Association of Programs in Public Administration (CAPPA), along with unique training in domains not found in other programs, such as community psychology and social justice.
Our program prepares students with the skills, knowledge, and experience for a range of career pathways including with municipal, provincial, and federal governments and agencies, as well as with not-for-profit organizations, advocacy groups, and research institutes.
Concentration: Social Change Leadership
The Social Change Leadership concentration prepares graduates to head government and community efforts that advance a more just society. The concentration educates students in understanding frameworks for social policy analysis, applying research methods, engaging in critical analysis, and developing knowledge of contemporary social issues in Canada. Students build skills to address intolerance, discrimination, and inequality through community and government efforts.
