If you are interested in public policy (including the intersection between policy and specific topic areas, e.g. food policy/ hunger, education, criminal justice, social justice, environment/ energy, healthcare, immigration, etc.), non-profit management, politics, and global policy studies, check out one of the Open House events hosted by the LBJ School of Public Affairs on September 28th and November 9th.
While students with professional experience are preferred, it is never too early to learn about the admissions process. Many of the applicants to the LBJ School come from liberal arts, area studies, business, communications, engineering, social work and geosciences. Advisors in those areas, are especially encouraged to pass this on to your students.
Attending an Open House is a great way for prospective students to experience what it would be like to be public policy student. They get the opportunity to:
- Meet the Dean,
- Meet with graduate advisors,
- Attend a class,
- Have lunch with current students and faculty, and
- Hear presentations about degree programs, admissions, fellowships, and career services.
