Our multi-disciplinary MPA programs are focused on policy analysis, development and implementation, preparing new and experienced professionals for rewarding careers in the public, private and non-profit sectors. Our graduates have gone on to hold positions as ministers and senior officials in municipal, provincial and federal governments. They also provide leadership in hospitals, community organizations and national associations across Canada. Others still work for consulting firms in the private sector.</p><p>In 2023, the School of Policy Studies underwent its regular cyclical review. The external reviewers' report acknowledged the clear strength of the school's current programs, but also observed that the school requires an increased level of resources to maintain and build on the excellence of its programs.</p><p>Program renewal is essential to ensure the School of Policy Studies remains strong going forward. As a result, the Faculty of Arts and Science at Queen's has <strong>temporarily suspended admissions to our Professional Master of Public Administration (PMPA) program for Fall 2024</strong>. The temporary suspension of admissions will last for two years, as per the Senate Guidelines.</p><p><strong>The Master of Public Administration (MPA) program will be offered as usual in 2024-25, and we welcome and encourage applications to this program.</strong></p><p>The School of Policy Studies offers a rich and rewarding learning experience that is unsurpassed in Canada and matched only by the best public policy programs in the world. Through high quality interactive teaching and integrated learning, we enhance leadership in public policy by providing students the inspiration, skills, competencies and connections to become better contributors to the public good. The MPA curriculum includes core courses in economics, policy analysis, governance, management and quantitative methods. Through elective courses, students apply their skills to the analysis and resolution of concrete policy and management problems.</p></div> <div class="field field--name-field-hero-image field--type-image field--label-above"> <div class="field--label">Image</div> <div class="field--item"> <img loading="lazy" src="/sites/homesitewww/files/img/program/Public%20Administration.jpg" width="1280" height="1280" alt="Director Warren Mabee speaking to a group of students" class="img-responsive"> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-department-links field--type-link field--label-above"> <div class="field--label">Program Links</div> <div class="field--items"> <div class="field--item"><a href="/sps/study-here/mpa">Master's</a></div> <div class="field--item"><a href="/sps/study-here/jd-mpa">Juris Doctor / MPA</a></div> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-themes field--type-entity-reference field--label-above"> <div class="field--label">Themes</div> <div class="field--items"> <div class="field--item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/11" hreflang="en">interdisciplinary</a></div> <div class="field--item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/13" hreflang="en">law</a></div> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-certifications field--type-entity-reference field--label-above"> <div class="field--label">Degrees</div> <div class="field--items"> <div class="field--item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/31" hreflang="en">master's program</a></div> <div class="field--item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/30" hreflang="en">Juris Doctor</a></div> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-delivery-modes field--type-entity-reference field--label-above"> <div class="field--label">Delivery Modes</div> <div class="field--items"> <div class="field--item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/18" hreflang="en">Kingston</a></div> <div class="field--item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/20" hreflang="en">other</a></div> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-departments field--type-entity-reference field--label-above"> <div class="field--label">Departments</div> <div class="field--items"> <div class="field--item"><a href="/node/260" hreflang="en">Policy Studies</a></div> <div class="field--item"><a href="/node/232" hreflang="en">Faculty of Law</a></div> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-department-faculty field--type-entity-reference field--label-above"> <div class="field--label">Faculty</div> <div class="field--items"> <div class="field--item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/35" hreflang="en">Arts and Science</a></div> <div class="field--item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/38" hreflang="en">Graduate Studies and Postdoctoral Affairs</a></div> <div class="field--item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/40" hreflang="en">Law</a></div> </div> </div> Tue, 29 Nov 2022 15:36:43 +0000 sl158 129 at /ur/homesitewww
