Our commitment to advancing leaders in the public interest at the Evans School goes beyond the work of our research centers. Our faculty is among the top in the public policy and management fields when it comes to cutting-edge research and outreach. We make this work available to the public through key projects such as:
- Civic Engagement for the 21st Century aims to create a model of civic engagement that emphasizes shared ownership and success for efforts around complex policy issues at the local and national levels.
- Community Vitality Project works to understand what policies are most effective to reduce poverty and enhance vitality in communities that vary by urban-rural location, in terms of racial and ethnic diversity, and with regard potential economic linkages with surrounding areas.
- The Electronic Hallway serves as a reservoir of case studies for those who teach public policy and administration.
- Public Service Clinics match the research interests of Evans School students with needed projects among regional public and non-profit agencies for producing things such as program evaluations, strategic plans, policy analyses, and new program designs.
- Working Papers Series provides access to our faculty members' pre-published research papers.
