The Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Public Administration and Management is a selective program that admits a small number of students (8 to 10) during the Fall semester of each year. Our program trains students for scholarly careers in field of public administration with specializations including urban management, nonprofit management, public financial management and emergency management. The program seeks to train and to mentor students as they work with faculty and independently to conduct research that is recognized both nationally and internationally. Coursework in the program includes both qualitative and quantitative analysis informed by theory from the cutting edge of public administration and management scholarship. Both faculty and students benefit from access to the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, which presents a superb laboratory for research into the complex and compelling issues facing the public today. Our collegial and distinguished faculty have established research agendas,  excellent reputations, and a collaborative spirit that provides a strong foundation for students who want to become the academic leaders and scholars of the future.
