Graduate Degree Fairs for the Public Good

To help people considering graduate education as a way to improve their skills and advance their careers, we have launched a series of Graduate Degree Fairs for the Public Good where potential applicants can meet with representatives from graduate programs. Each event will also offer a set of workshops that will describe the various degrees, illuminate the application and financial aid process, and guide attendees in how to transition back to school.

Our Graduate Degree Fairs for the Public Good bring together a range of degree programs including, but not limited to:

• Public Interest Law
• Public Administration
• Public Policy
• Social Work
• Socially Responsible Business
• Urban Planning
• Divinity
• Education
• Environmental Sciences
• Global and Public Health
• International Affairs
• Nonprofit Management

At each of our fairs, you will meet representatives from 60 to 120 of the leading nonprofit-related graduate programs in the country, representing degrees ranging from MPAs and MBAs through Law, Social Work, International Relations, Urban Planning, and many more.
