I stumbled across this online Master of Public Policy program from Univ of Mass-Dartmouth. It seems priced ok at around $17K. Master of Public Policy - Home - UMass Dartmouth Online - University of Massachusetts Dartmouth The program has a public management concentration too. I almost think I would rather spend the time and money on this degree rather than go for a doctorate?? I any event, thought I would share. Seems like a decent priced program from a big name U.
