In response to the growing labour market, we have designed a program that shapes students into strong candidates with transferable skills, such as leadership, managing projects, employee management, team building, and understanding ethical responsibilities and financial reports within public and non-profit organizations.
The study of public administration and governance will serve to either advance your career in the public sector or foster a seamless transition into the public sector. Each of our varied courses aims to encourage future leaders to analyze discrepancies in today’s current public operations, develop hands-on experience and gain a competitive edge, and find innovative strategies to achieve long-term success for organizations.

Launched in 2018, the undergraduate-level certificate in public administration and governance was so successful that inquiring students had to be put on a waiting list.
