The Master of Public Administration, Executive program in Global Public Policy and Management (EMPA for Global Policy Leaders), offered jointly with University College London's School of Public Policy (UCL), provides experienced leaders like you—analysts, decision makers, and managers in domestic and international organizations, and in the public, non-profit, and private sectors—the chance to expand your knowledge base and sharpen your skill set. As a full-time student, you’ll craft effective solutions to problems in the face of global and local policy and management challenges. You’ll:

Balance advantages of public and private sector actors
Promote successful inter-governmental cooperation at all levels
More effectively link policy analysis with policy implementation
Broadly ensure that policy is meeting its intended objectives and improving human welfare

Whatever your chosen field, as a global leader you'll need to be able to develop and implement creative, cross-sector policies in a complex environment in which many communities and organizations have a stake. This program will prepare you to do exactly that.

The EMPA for Global Policy Leaders program is a one-year, full-time program. Students spend the first semester (August - December) at NYU Wagner in New York City and then move to UCL in London for the spring semester (January - May). The program ends in locations across the globe for summer-long (June - August), client-based Capstone projects.
