\u201cMPM is more than applied political science. It\u2019s learning both how politics operates, along with how you can effectively play a part in shaping the policies, platforms, and legislation that it turns out. It\u2019s getting out of your echo chamber and meeting new friends. This program is for people who want to strategically advance an agenda that they believe it.
