Urban Policy and Management

The Certificate in Urban Policy and Management program prepares current and emerging leaders and managers to effectively and ethically lead and manage governmental and nonprofit organizations and programs that exist to meet the needs of the urban community.

The Department of Public Affairs offers a 12 credit-hour professional Graduate Certificate in Urban Policy and Management. This certificate may be earned alone or in combination with another graduate degree at UMKC and is especially appropriate for those who aspire to a successful career leading and managing local and regional government or community-based nonprofit organizations.

Admission requirements for the Urban Policy and Management certificate are the same requirements needed for the Master of Public Administration degree.
