Become a leader and advocate for social justice at all levels of public service with a Master of Public Administration graduate degree from Adler University. Channel your passion for improving your community by addressing some of the world’s most pressing challenges, such as income inequality, insecure housing, and environmental threats – all with the flexibility of an online program. And, choose a concentration – sustainable communities, military and veterans services, or crisis management – that aligns with your career aspirations.
Crisis Management trains students to respond to and manage the impact of natural, accidental, or premeditated disasters and their effects on communities – especially those populations who are already vulnerable. Further, there is a special focus on serving those communities that are at-risk and/or marginalized during times of crisis. Students will learn to identify and foster psychological resiliency and advocate for healthy and resilient communities – especially in the immediate aftermath of an acute or chronic crisis. Additionally, students will develop or strengthen leadership skills that promote positive community growth and development.
