Public Policy masters program ranked #1 by Graduateprograms.com; Urban Planning ranking continues to rise

October 21, 2015

For the third year in a row, the Bloustein School’s Public Policy masters program is ranked #1 by Graduateprograms.com! We also moved up to #4 in Urban Planning master’s programs. This ranking is unique in that it is student-driven—ranking is determined by votes from students currently matriculated in these programs.

What are our students and alumni saying? They enjoy the small, close-knit program within the larger university community. They like the closeness of New York City, Philadelphia, and Washington, DC for resources and jobs. They find the program very competitive, but with a very supportive academic and administrative staff.
