Public Administration
A degree program that prepares people for careers in public administration and governance for the public interest. It is also a formation course for students who want to devout their life to public services.
The government being the country’s largest employer needs to have a continuing supply of personnel who will be committed and dedicated public servants. At the same time, civil society organizations need staff and volunteers imbued with the same values who can head and manage their advocacy and service delivery programs to pursue causes directed for the public good.
Objectives
- To familiarize students with the mechanisms operating in the major political institutions and agencies for the creation and implementation of public policies.
- To actively engage in the policymaking process, including expert communities, interest groups, the media, agency bureaucrats, and elected officials.
- To familiarize students on with the dominant ideas presently used in the social sciences for understanding the impetus for the creation of public policy and the means for its successful implementation.
- To apply this understanding of the various components of social policy making to effectively introduce new aspects to the existing consideration of a specific area of recent public policy interest.
