The College of Public Affairs and Administration is at the forefront
of the campus' mission of public affairs and service within the
context of liberal arts and professional education. The college
serves the capital city and the state of Illinois well in preparing
its students to enter the workforce, using a multidisciplinary
approach to public service education and experiential learning
as the foundation of this preparation.
The College of Public
Affairs and Administration has a three-part mission: 1) to
educate students
for careers in fields related to public service in public,
private, and nonprofit organizations through strong liberal arts-based
undergraduate, professional master's degree, and doctoral programs;
2) to conduct
scholarly research projects and contribute to the development
of knowledge in the areas of faculty expertise through publications,
presentations, and other activities; and 3) to contribute
to the
community, state, nation, and the world through public service
activities.
In addition to its undergraduate and graduate programs and
