“
The MEP program is a great balance of academic foundation paired with professional growth. You develop fundamental knowledge from nationally recognized education policy scholars with the opportunity to immediately apply that learning through hands-on policy work during the internship. Moving from the East Coast, the cohort model has been such an asset, not to mention the amazing setting of Seattle and the Pacific Northwest!
