When you choose a career in public affairs, you choose a path of leadership and service. You choose to be an active participant in public decisions — decisions that affect your neighborhood, your community, your country, and people around the globe. You choose to analyze problems, seek solutions, collaborate for change, and advocate for your community.
A Ford School public policy degree will prepare you to lead and effect change in a broad range of public service roles. Our graduates develop creative and sound solutions that advance the goals of public policy. They are adaptable and respond quickly to our ever-evolving social, economic and political landscape. Our graduates are effective leaders who empower, challenge, inspire others, and shape the world in which we live. Our program is designed to provide students with a strong set of skills in the areas of quantitative analysis, writing and public management. Our students are able to tailor their program to their interests through selecting from a wide variety of electives offered both through the Ford School as well as the many other outstanding graduate programs at the University of Michigan. |
