Rutgers University School of Public Affairs and Administration
As a Master of Public Administration (MPA) student, I am proud to present my portfolio, which highlights my academic and professional accomplishments, as well as my commitment to public service. Throughout my academic journey, I have developed a keen interest in public policy and administration, particularly in the areas of leadership and social justice. My portfolio reflects my dedication to these fields and showcases my experiences, skills, and knowledge that I have acquired during my MPA program.
In this portfolio, I have included a variety of materials that demonstrate my competencies in critical thinking, research, writing, and leadership. These materials include academic papers, policy analyses, program evaluations, and a research proposal that I completed during my MPA program.
Through my academic and professional experiences, I have gained valuable skills that will enable me to succeed in the public sector. I have learned how to analyze complex policy issues, develop evidence-based solutions, and effectively communicate my ideas to diverse audiences. I have also gained leadership skills that will enable me to work effectively in teams and to manage complex projects.
As I embark on my career in public service, I am confident that my MPA program has equipped me with the skills and knowledge necessary to make a positive impact on my community. I am excited to continue my journey in public administration and to use my skills to promote social justice, diversity, equity and inclusion, and public service excellence.
