Public administrators run our harbors, our airports, our public transportation systems.
They manage our environment, community centers, and our schools and universities. They are leaders in health care, urban revitalization, and welfare reform. They manage virtually every aspect of public service, federal, state and local. They work in the public and nonprofit sectors and work with business and other private actors. They redesign governance in cities, counties, the state and federal government to make government more responsive, efficient and accountable.
