100 years ago, visionaries at the University of Michigan launched a program leading to a Master of Arts in Municipal Administration — the nation’s first systematic public service training program with a municipal focus.
Right from that groundbreaking start, the Ford School earned its reputation as a true pioneer in policy education. Forty-five years ago, we built the nation’s first interdisci-plinary, analytic public policy degree. In 1999, we proudly took the name of the University of Michigan’s favorite son, the 38th President of the United States of America.
Today, we’re known around the world as an elite policy school housed at a world-class University.
And now, on the cusp of our second century, the Ford School’s vision is bold. To inspire and train exceptional leaders. To launch and lead game-changing research projects that transform how we address society’s most intractable challenges. To arm policy communities in the state of Michigan, in Washington, D.C., and around the world with first-rate insights and discoveries.
We hope you will join us throughout 2014, as we celebrate and reflect on the history, evolution, and future of one of the world’s premier schools of public policy.
In 1969, University of Michigan faculty created the first policy degree founded in the social sciences. A few of the founders, including longtime IPPS faculty Pat Crecine (center, seated), Lawrence Mohr (left, seated), and Jack Walker (right, standing).
