"As a policy analyst at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, I can attest to the value of a public policy education. The mpp degree offers a unique balance of training in politics, economics, statistics, law and other fields. No other program of study would have prepared me as well for my current career."

— Will Fischer, Senior Policy Analyst, Center on Budget and Policy Priorities
