Welcome
The concept of New Public Management (NPM) involves radical changes being made by the state and local authorities. It implies both a challenge and an opportunity for the employees in public service who must contribute to these changes. Reforms in public administration can only succeed when all those involved at a middle management level know and understand the aims and are versed in modern methods of public management.
Since 1998 our team at Kassel University has offered a dedicated further education course in NPM which received repeat accreditation in October 2007. It is aimed at civil and public servants in public administration and non-profit organizations who have a university degree or a degree from a university of applied sciences and at least one year´s experience in a relevant profession.
We are pleased with the increasing demand for places, and are also proud of the people – over 500 in number – who have qualified. Since the winter semester of 2007/08 many have begun the postgraduate degree course (PhD) established especially for them. There can be no doubt: Kassel´s MPA - with120 credits making it the only full MPA which can lead to a doctor title – has become a trademark of administrative reform in Germany.
If you would like to actively contribute to the future, join the network of MPAs throughout Germany.
Looking forward to having you on board,
Professor Dr. Jürgen Reese
