MPA 3000 - Design Thinking in Public Administration

Public administration is a field in which leaders serve communities to advance the common good and effect positive change.  While many public policies and programs exist, not all of them meet the needs of the intended communities.   This is not a course on public policy or program assessment; rather, this course focuses on helping students determine how to design policies and programs with intentionality to effect positive change.  Specifically, students will explore the impact mindset (individual/collective) has on the outcome.  Moreover, students will practice using design thinking to propose solutions in select areas of public administration.

Anticipated Terms Offered: Annually
