• Message from the Chair

Welcome to the website of the Public Management department in the Sawyer Business School at Suffolk University.

The Public Management department offers an undergraduate major in Public Administration, a minor in Public Administration, a Masters degree in Public Administration (MPA), and a Masters of Health Administration (MHA). Our Center for Public Management also offers a variety of certificate programs in public management.

Suffolk MPA alumni hold visible positions in all levels of government, healthcare, education, and nonprofit industries and include Congressmen, Mayors, Town Managers, State Legislators, and CEOs of nonprofit organizations.

Our faculty are leaders in their field of study and are active in the community. Many hold leadership positions in government associations or are members of nonprofit boards.

I hope you enjoy our web site and learn more about who we are and what we can offer you academically and professionally.

Sincerely,

Michael T. Lavin
