The Department of Public Policy (DPP) is located on the University of Connecticut's Greater Hartford Campus in West Hartford, CT. The department is dedicated to the highest quality research, teaching, and service in the areas of public policy, survey research, and public administration.

DPP offers a Master of Public Administration (MPA) and three graduate certificates: the Graduate Certificate in Public & Nonprofit Management (PNPM); the Graduate Certificate in Public Financial Management (PFM); and the Graduate Certificate in Survey Research (SR). The Department also offers an undergraduate minor. Our programs offer the closeness and support of a small campus coupled with the resources of a top-notch public university.
