The Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs at the University of Minnesota is sponsoring a diversity weekend for prospective students, November 12th and 13th, 2009. Up to $400 in travel expenses will be reimbursed for those coming from more than 200 miles away. Prospective students will have the opportunity to meet faculty, staff, current students and alumni, and learn more about our nationally ranked graduate programs in Public Policy; Urban and Regional Planning; Development Practice in International Development; and Science, Technology and Environmental Policy. Students in programs such as yours have been very successful in our graduate programs.
We offer concentrations and specializations in a wide range of domestic and international areas, and we also offer joint degrees with the schools of Business, Law, Social Work, Public Health, Design, and Civil Engineering.
The deadline for applying to attend Diversity Weekend is October 14, 2009.
