MPA SPOTLIGHT
Jan Bents, alumnus of the MPA program, is currently working at Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana. We asked him a few questions about how he made his way into higher education, and what advice he has for current and prospective MPA students. Read the full spotlight here!
MPA student Caitlin McDonald recently presented research at the Center for Research on Migration & Refugee Integration's (CRMRI) first Research Symposium.
Caitlin's presentation was entitled: "Why Aren't They Asking for Help? Refugee Service Providers' Perceptions of Needs and Best Practices Related to the Mental Health of Refugee Women in Utah"
