Public Management and Leadership - Mixed-Model (Ph.D.)

Public services are being delivered through alternative nongovernmental institutions, and citizens and their elected officials are expecting more from those who manage public and nonprofit institutions. The Public Management and Leadership specialization prepares scholar-practitioners to lead reform in public administration.

The Mixed-Model option is a more flexible program of study that includes online courses and Walden’s signature Knowledge Area Modules (KAMs). Study independently and work closely with a faculty mentor to apply your research to an area in which you are passionate.
