Overview Job growth, affordable housing, Loyola University Chicago educational reform, environmental degradation—these are just a few of the significant challenges that face society today. As these issues grow more complex, the relationships among government, business, and non-profit organizations also take on critical importance. The public policy program at Loyola can help students transform their interest in these types of problems into the ability to analyze and act upon them. The curriculum brings together knowledge about current government programs with the technical skills to assess how politics influence policy choices, how to design more effective programs, and how to evaluate the impacts of existing ones. Along with the Master of Arts in Urban Affairs (MUA), the Master of Public Policy (MPP) program is one of two degrees offered within the MUAPP Program of Loyola.
