    I just posted a thread about the London BD, but am also very interested in the integration of ethics and public policy. My undergraduate degree is in economics, and I also have J.D. (practicing atty in Texas). Ultimately, I want to teach - either online or traditional school. Can anyone recommend a credible, high-quality distance master's program in public policy? I know London International Programmes has one, but I know not of its quality. Thanks for all your help!

    I know you're asking about a master's degree, but if you ultimately want to teach and already have a JD, have you considered a doctorate in public administration?

    Look at the Fletcher School at Tufts. They have a one year distance program. It does require a few short residencies, one of which is international.

    I think the Masters would serve the OP's needs if all he wants to do is teach. The JD is a doctorate of sorts.

    I have considered a PhD, but like AUTiger00 said, a M.S. should suffice for teaching as an adjunct and/or online. Plus, the time and expense of a PhD is discouraging after my J.D.!

    I've actually eyed the IU program for some time - I am waiting on the accreditation, then it will be on my shortlist!
