Marvin Mandell, Professor of Public Policy, assumes the presidency of the National Association of Schools of Public Affairs and Administration (NASPAA) at their 2008 Annual Conference this month. NASPAA promotes excellence in public service education. The membership includes over 250 U.S. university programs in public affairs, public policy, public administration and nonprofit management. NASPAA accreditation recognizes that a master's program in public affairs has gone through a rigorous process of voluntary peer review and meets NASPAA's standards. The UMBC Department of Public Policy is one of only 3 NASPAA accredited programs in Maryland.
