Sammy Bauer, 2021

Community Education CoordinatorTown of Chapel Hill - Stormwater Division
Among other things, the UNC MPA program teaches you how to ask the right questions. This skill helped bridge my past experience as a social studies teacher with my current role as a professional science communicator. Generalist in nature, the multidisciplinary approach of the program will set you up for success in whatever field you land in next.
