Merrimack’s Master of Public Affairs is designed to offer you the opportunity to learn content and skills related to the breadth of fields within public service. Rather than choosing one area of focus in public administration, public policy or non-profit management, our curriculum allows you to engage in each area for a well-rounded experience that translates to the field. You’ll learn in small, engaged classes with a range of academic experts and practitioners which lead to opportunities for internships and field experience.
