Located in Ottawa, Carleton University's School of Public Policy and Administration (SPPA) is Canada's oldest multidisciplinary graduate school in the field. Established in 1953, SPPA produces leaders for the public and nonprofit sectors and high quality, innovative research in policy and public management.

SPPA is the number one ranked policy school in Canada, as rated by Corporate Knights, for curriculum content and research related to sustainable development.[1] It is accredited by CAPPA (Canadian Association of Programs in Public Administration).[2] The SPPA location in the nation's capital means that students have easy access to Parliament and federal government departments, archives and libraries, international embassies and the many national and international non-governmental organizations based in Ottawa.

Degree Programs

  • PhD in Public Policy – established in 1992, this interdisciplinary program is the first of its kind in Canada and admits 6-9 students per year.[3]
  • Master of Public Policy and Administration – this two year professionally relevant academic degree provides a strong foundation in both the theory and practice of public management and policy analysis. The very popular co-operative education option allows students to gain one or two terms of valuable (and paid) experience in government or other organizations.
  • Master of Arts in Sustainable Energy Policy – Offered jointly with the Faculty of Engineering and Design, the program offers advanced training in all aspects of sustainable and renewable energy. It ensures that policy students understand some basics of energy technology and that they can work in teams with engineers.
  • Master of Philanthropy and Nonprofit Leadership – Launched in 2012, this program prepares graduates to be innovators and leaders in charities, nonprofits, advocacy organizations, social enterprises, philanthropic foundations, development offices, and in the governments, financial institutions and businesses that interact with them.
  • Graduate Diplomas: These course diplomas are targeted toward working professionals or those with advanced degrees already; they may be credited toward the Masters, although there is a separate admissions process:
    • Policy and Program Evaluation
    • Public Management
    • Health Policy
    • Sustainable Development
    • Philanthropy and Nonprofit Leadership

History

In 1942 community leaders in Ottawa, recognizing the need for specialized education to meet the demands of a growing public service, created Carleton College (which was to become Carleton University in 1952) with public administration and journalism as its first programs. The first graduate degree in public administration was awarded in 1946. With support from the Atkinson Foundation, the School of Public Administration was established in 1953. [1] The PhD in Public Policy was created in 1992 – also a first in Canada – and in 2001 the school was renamed the School of Public Policy and Administration (SPPA).

Administrative housing

SPPA is situated in a unique Faculty of Public Affairs (FPA) which brings together 13 units, including other professional schools (Norman Paterson School of International Affairs; School of Journalism and Communication;Social Work), academic disciplines (Economics; Law and Legal Studies; Political Science), interdisciplinary Institutes (Criminology and Criminal Justice; European, Russian and Eurasian Studies; Political Economy; African Studies), the Clayton H. Riddell Graduate Program in Political Management, and an elite, limited enrolment undergraduate program, the Arthur Kroeger College of Public Affairs.
