Government, MA/MBA at Johns Hopkins University

Johns Hopkins University, United States

Programme overview

Management education typically addresses the public and private sectors separately, with universities offering the MBA degree for business leadership and the MA, MPP, or MPA for public-sector management. The assumption is that managers working in the public and private sectors are involved with completely different sets of issues and problems. The reality is that they face similar challenges, and managers frequently move between the public and private sectors.
