Writing Skills

            The MPA program prepares students to develop strong written communication skills through various assignments and projects. In my courses, I have had several opportunities to improve this skill by writing memos, policy briefs, and program evaluation reports. These assignments and projects have turned me into a better writer because I have real, practical experience writing result-oriented public documents. Learning how to write in different styles is important in public administration because it is a way to inform different stakeholders about new ideas and issues.

The following documents are samples of my work.
