美国留学MPA、MPP、MPM专业的课程是什么呢?51出国留学留学顾问表示,尽管美国大学的MPA及MPP/MPM的课程设置是随公共管理实践与公共管理学科的发展而变化的,而且各大学所侧重的课程也不同,但是这些课程有一些基本的共同点,即有一批基本相同或相似的课程。就MPA项目的课程设置来说,一般包含三方面的内容:
(1)核心课程(Core courses,相当于我们所说的专业基础课),一般包括公共管理和政策研究的理论基础、分析方法及技巧;
(2)选修课,即学生根据自己的专业领域或主攻方向以及个人需要与兴趣而选择一组课程(一般围绕公共管理和公共政策的实质领域选择主攻方向);
(3)公共管理和公共政策的实习与研讨班,主要是让学生将所学知识和方法运用于公共管理与公共政策实践中,获得在真实的管理世界中分析、解决问题和实际管理的能力。
举两个例子:
例1:Georgia State University开设的MPA:
(1)必修课core courses ,Public Service and Democracy ,Applied Research Methods and Statistics I &II
