Rutgers EMPA Program Slates Open House in W. Windsor

Public-sector and nonprofit professionals interested in earning an advanced degree have two upcoming opportunities to learn about Rutgers’ Executive Master of Public Administration (EMPA) program, which is now accepting applications for the Fall 2015 cohort taught on the Mercer County Community College (MCCC) campus in West Windsor.

Offered by the Rutgers-Camden Department of Public Policy and Administration, the EMPA program is designed to prepare working professionals for advanced career opportunities in municipal, county, state and national government, as well as nonprofit organization leadership. The program is taught online and in Saturday class sessions on the MCCC campus in West Windsor. It takes 24 months to complete.

An open house is slated for 1 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 31, in The Conference Center at Mercer, 1200 Old Trenton Road, West Windsor, on the MCCC campus. EMPA faculty, administrators and graduates will be on hand to answer questions.

For those who cannot attend in person, an online informational webinar will be offered at 12:30 p.m., Wednesday, Feb. 25. Program director Dr. Angie McGuire will provide a program overview and answer questions online.
