The Master of Public Policy (MPP) program is looking for applicants with intellectual curiosity, passion for problem solving and dedication to public service. We are a program designed for those who are not satisfied working with abstractions and who desire to put their quantitative skills and creativity to work in their communities. While quantitative skills are essential to student success, applicants must also demonstrate the ability to work well with a variety of people and organizations. The Master of Public Policy (MPP) program trains students to become professional policy analysts for government agencies, non-profit advocacy and research groups, and private firms. An interdisciplinary curriculum exposes students to policy and research fundamentals, which stress the identification, evaluation and implementation of policy initiatives. Participation in UNM’s Evaluation Lab gives students hands-on experience. An ongoing Policy Seminar provides a forum for student collaboration, integration with the local policy community and the inculcation of professional values and norms.
