UNC MPA Immersion

Each fall the MPA program brings students together for the immersion – a weekend-long intensive course that offers a deep dive into a timely and impactful area of public service.

This year’s Immersion will focus on emergency management and will be led by School of Government faculty member Crista Cuccaro. Students will explore how local governments coordinate emergency response across public health, infrastructure, law enforcement, and emergency services sectors.

Current students may register for the course in Connect Carolina, and alumni may register using the link below.
