TEXAS A&M UNIVERSITY- Bush School of Government & Public Service

Nonprofit or community organization

Last modified: March 29, 2013, 4:29 PM

Description

The Bush School of Government and Public Service is home to two masters' programs (MPSA-Public Service & Administration; MPIA-International Affairs) and multiple online graduate certificates. The School offers a challenging curriculum, an innovative leadership development program, and opportunities for both professional growth and public service.

The Bush School's degrees provide a professional education for those seeking careers in the public or nonprofit sectors or in the governmental-focused private sector. Students can focus studies through a number of tracks and concentrations. The MPSA offers five areas, including nonprofit management, state/local government, and various policy areas and the MPIA has eight, including American diplomacy, intelligence, international politics, conflict & development, international development, regional studies, and more. Both degrees integrate a capstone project and a professional summer internship (those in IA can substitute a summer cultural/language study). The nonpartisan programs enroll 70-90 students each per year, and all students receive some level of scholarship aid, from $1-30K a year, which currently allows ALL degree students to pay Texas rates of approximately $11K a year.

The Certificate in Advanced International Affairs (CAIA), Certificate in Homeland Security (CHLS), and Certificate in Nonprofit Management (CNPM) are for individuals who desire professional development in 4-5 courses. All three are available online. Limited enrollment also occurs in our on-campus China Studies Certificate. More certificate details, including courses and admissions, are on our website.

For further information, please contact Kathryn Meyer, Recruitment Director, at admissions@bushschool.tamu.edu or 979-862-3476. You may also visit us at http://bush.tamu.edu.

    We continue to grow, stay affordable with our competitive tuition/fees and in-state rates for all students, AND have kept our employment percentages between 85-90% in both our MPSA and IA programs. We look to enroll about 70 for our MPSA and 90 for our IA programs for fall 2013. Scholarsihps have been given to every incoming student and our tuition/fees will run at 11K a year for fall 2013. Check us out!

    With an aim of enrolling 140 students this coming fall (65 for Public Service & Admin; 75 for Int'l Affairs), the Bush School is growing significantly to accommodate the demand for professional education for careers in government, nonprofits, international organizations, think tanks, and businesses.
