Spring 2015 = Poli-450
Do you Need Upper Level Credits?
If you are still searching for an upper level political science course
to meet your major requirements or graduation upper level requirements,
please consider POLI 450, a seminar in public management. The course
also satisfies the elective requirement for the Public Administration
minor and certificate. The class meets Mondays and Wednesdays at
2:30-3:45 pm in Public Policy 438. Professor Arthur Johnson is the
instructor.
This course examines strategies and methods used by public managers in leading government agencies and non-profit organizations. Special attention is given to organizational mission and vision, issues of leadership, and organizational transformation. How do leaders turn a poorly performing agency into a productive one? Case studies will be the basis for class discussions and examinations. Examples will also be taken from current events at the local, state, and federal government levels.
