While public affairs faculty study administration and management
techniques, few administrators of public affairs programs receive
formal training in the nuts and bolts of academic administration.
Even those faculty who come to academia after distinguished careers
in managerial positions may not be ready for the very different
(and difficult) environment of university administration. The
Public Affairs Faculty Manual argues that public affairs as a field
needs to ensure that knowledge about administration and management
is applied to the running of its academic programs, and brings
together major leaders in the discipline to explore key features of
academic administration. Many of these leaders have served as
Master of Public Administration (MPA) directors, chairs, and deans
at the nation's top public affairs programs. Crucial issues of
academic administration discussed include the basics of public
affairs programs, models of governance, roles of different
administrative leaders, planning and budgeting for programs,
navigating the accreditation process, assessing and improving
student learning, ensuring social equity and cultural competency,
mentoring faculty, developing curriculum, and helping provide
service and applied research to community partners. Contributors
have served as MPA directors, chairs, and deans at the nation's
topic public affairs programs. Themes running throughout the book's
chapters are examined, and additional resources to help manage
public affairs programs are offered. This collection of essays and
the strategies within it are designed to encourage faculty to
assume positions of leadership in their programs and manage those
programs in an effective, efficient, and fair manner. The Public
Affairs Faculty Manual is required reading for new, seasoned, and
aspiring academic administrators in public administration, public
policy, and nonprofit management programs, as well as schools of
government.
