Academic Programs, Research Centers and Institutes
The John W. McCormack Graduate School of Policy Studies offers an exciting range of educational and research opportunities. Our thought-provoking academic programs, research centers and institutes provide a rich environment in which to explore policy and the complex issues which shape policy and impact communities worldwide.
Graduate programs in Gerontology, Public Policy and Public Affairs are offered though a three-tiered approach — graduate certificates, master's and doctoral degrees. The School's six research centers and institutes provide the opportunity to participate in leading research projects — funded through government and nonprofit contracts — to study the critical policy issues of our times.
Through our world class programs, research centers and institutes, we seek to foster a community where students, faculty, researchers and graduates from a broad spectrum of backgrounds may come together to learn, share and debate — in hopes of contributing to policies fostering more just and equitable societies.
