Public Administration Seminar

Catalog description

This capstone course focuses on the context (political, legal, and social) in which public administration takes place, the meaning of public service in a democratic society, and the importance of personal and professional ethics using cases to relate principles and theories of public administration to concrete, real-world problems. Students will integrate coursework and theory as well as real-world experience into the analysis of a public policy or public management problem and produce a final seminar paper.
