“The MPM program provided exactly what I was looking for, combining practical skills development with the academic challenge of a graduate program. The skills I learned through the program were immediately transferable to my role on the Hill, and have served me well ever since – including both my public and private sector work. What I value most though, from the MPM program, are the relationships which I developed with my classmates, instructors and other alumni which have created a truly unique, cross-partisan network of friends and colleagues across the country.” – Cameron Wilson
