Excellent Public Administration program. The professors are all experienced professionals who have served in upper level management and administrative cabinet positions in government, therefore you learn from first hand experience. The professors want you to learn; they push you to learn; they bend and mold you sufficiently but never break you.
I recommend the Public Administration program highly!
Review CUNY Medgar Evers College
Medgar Evers College provides an excellent academic environment. The professors are highly qualified, committed to the success of their students and always have time to assist. Many great programs and support resources are available. MEC is an important part of the Central Brooklyn community and is near to transit, cultural institutions and many other destinations.
Honestly, when I got accepted into Medgar Evers College, I didn't want to go, and I thought I would not like it. It is an amazing school! There are so many great opportunities, there is a lovely student community, and the faculty and staff are very supportive, helpful, and understanding. I love this school!
