The College offers opportunities for graduate work to students interested in academic and professional careers in the areas of urban affairs, public policy, and public administration.
Course work in the college is organized on a multidisciplinary and policy-oriented basis.
Faculty are drawn from political science, economics, sociology, geography, public administration, planning, law, and related fields. In addition, students have numerous opportunities to work on community and policy-related research and service projects undertaken by the college through its Center for Applied Demography and Survey Research, Center for Energy and Environmental Policy, Center for Historic Architecture and Engineering, Delaware Public Administration Institute, and the Center for Community Development. Students may also work in public and voluntary agencies through the college's internship program.
