Welcome
to the website of the Graduate Department of Public Policy and Administration,
Rutgers University - Camden. The Graduate Department is the focus of most
policy and public administration related education and research at Rutgers'
south New Jersey campus. It offers the only fully accredited Masters in
Public Administration program in the Philadelphia / Camden metropolitan
area, as well as joint programs in management and policy with the Peace
Corps and the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey.
The students and faculty
associated with the Graduate Department have a commitment to public service
as well as a commitment to education. Through internships and community
activities many students work directly with residents in a community or
with a non-profit service organization. Other students, who have had no
experience with government or community based organizations, become interns
in Departmental or student arranged situations.
Faculty are also engaged
in a broad range of research activity much of it focused on Camden, south
New Jersey and the Philadelphia metropolitan area. Many faculty and students
work on regional projects through the Forum for Policy Research -- frequently
at the request of the State Legislature, federal agencies or local government.
All of this activity is directed toward meeting the Graduate Department's
goal of integrating education, research and public service.
