We can design policy by all and for all.
The world’s biggest problems cannot be solved by any one of us alone. The McCourt School is paving the way toward a bold future — one that partners with communities, organizations and experts to improve policymaking through collaboration, data and evidence. Together, we can strengthen our civic architecture and turn policy research into impact.
Strengthening the Pipeline of Diverse Talent
With a $100 million investment from civic entrepreneur Frank McCourt, the McCourt School is reducing tuition barriers to cultivate a more inclusive pipeline of future leaders and new ideas to advance research and expertise for the common good.
Advancing Equity-Centered Policy
The McCourt School aspires to be the most inclusive public policy school in the world, which is why faculty and students train not only in analytic skills but also in leadership, communications and other skills needed to cultivate community and design policy solutions with an equity-centered lens.
