Executive
Education at
George Mason University School of Public
Policy
The Executive
Programs of the School of Public Policy are constructed
to meet the needs of successful managers
who know that yesterday’s knowledge
is insufficient for tomorrow’s challenges.
These executives need to understand specific
aspects of their rapidly changing external
environment and the implications of such
changes on their ability to achieve their
organizations’ goals.

Our Comparative Advantage: Experience, Vision,
Results
Experience: Directed by two of Washington, D.C.’s premiere
leaders in Executive Education, A.
Lee Fritschler
and Barbara D. Littell, our Executive Education programs provide participants
access to leading practitioners throughout the nation and highly trained academic
experts in the School of Public Policy.
Vision: The Executive Education program enables our clients
to cope effectively in a complex, changing policy environment. Whether an organization
is public or private, it has constituencies to which it must respond and is
bombarded by change, much of it emanating from government. Our strategic plan
is to actively support key decision makers who must solve the most challenging
problems of the day in this demanding environment.
Results: In 15 short years the School of Public Policy has
become a major force in public policy education and research in the U.S. and
abroad. The School is a top recipient of federal research support, according
to a recent study of the National Science Foundation, and is already one of
the largest public policy graduate schools in the U.S. We offer programs in
and have joint agreements with institutions throughout the world.
