The Heller School for Social Policy and Management within Brandeis University is pleased to announce an expansion of its renowned professional training in social policy analysis to include a Master of Public Policy (MPP) in Social Policy.  The two-year degree will provide graduates with conceptual frameworks and the practical tools and techniques necessary to engage in the development, implementation, evaluation, and advocacy of social policy initiatives. Building from the core of Heller’s PhD program, the MPP will offer concentrations in: health; behavioral health; children, youth, and families; poverty alleviation and international development; aging; and human services. Students can also design their own concentration with faculty approval.
