About

Overview The emphasis of the Public Administration (Mid-Career, Edward S. Mason Program) degree offered by Harvard Kennedy School is on developing the broad range of analytical and leadership skills required to initiate and implement major political, social or economic change.The Mason Fellows bring an impressive range of backgrounds and experience to Harvard. Mason Fellows come from all across Africa, Asia, Latin America, the Caribbean, the Middle East, Eastern and Central Europe as well as the former Soviet Union and they are engaged in every aspect of economic, social and political development. A typical Mason class includes experienced professionals who have assumed leadership roles in education, energy, defense, housing, transportation, foreign affairs, public enterprise, rural and urban development, environmental preservation, central banking, journalism, politics and economic planning.Mason Fellows are enrolled in the Mid-Career Master in Public Administration (MC/MPA). Simultaneously, they participate in a year-long co-curricular program that complements the MC/MPA by exposing the Mason Fellows to the ideas and strategies of leading thinkers and practitioners in economic, political, and social development. Participation in the co-curricular program is a requirement for the Mason Fellows and culminates with the award of the Mason Certificate in Public Policy and Management at the end of the year in addition to the MPA.The Mason Program begins with two intensive summer sessions. In the first session, known as the Mason Fellows Summer Seminar, participants use cases developed by the Kennedy School faculty as well as cases drawn from their own professional experience to explore questions of leadership, strategic management, communication and policy decision-making. In the second summer session, known as the MPA Summer Program, participants develop their knowledge of applied economics, quantitative analysis, political institutions and globalization. The content of the two semesters of graduate study that follow the summer sessions is largely determined by the student. I want to find another Master Course
