The mission of the Auburn University MPA program is to advance effective and accountable public service in a dynamic, increasingly global environment that includes government agencies and nonprofit organizations. We accomplish this using a collaborative model of teaching, research and outreach that instills in a diverse group of students the capacity for civic agency, providing them with the knowledge, skills, values and motivation to make a difference in the civic life of their communities.
Our program emphasizes the necessity of professional knowledge, skills and abilities that help ensure our students are capable of serving as effective, accountable leaders and managers in government and nonprofit organizations.
We view the environment of public service as increasingly diverse, dynamic and globally interconnected. Therefore, we strive to create students who are global citizens that embrace the benefits of diversity. We also seek to create students who are flexible, innovative and capable of handling changing dynamics in the public service environment. Read more about this philosophy in our MPA Program handbook.
Our collaborative model of teaching, research and service as echoed in our mission is carefully designed to instill what we call "civic agency" in our students. This means we not only equip them with the knowledge, skills and abilities they need to be successful in public service but that we also seek to instill in them the motivation to make a difference in local and global communities.
Most of our graduates go on to hold positions in public agencies, nonprofit organizations or the private sector. Our alumni are effective members of their communities, whether at work or in volunteer activities.
