Thank you, Glenn. I have sent an e-mail to ASPA and will inform everyone of their answer. -----Original Message----- From: Research Administration List [mailto:xxxxxx@HRINET.ORG]On Behalf Of Glenn Krell Sent: Thursday, October 16, 2003 12:16 PM To: xxxxxx@HRINET.ORG Subject: Re: [RESADM-L] Master's Degree in Sponsored Programs Hi Carolyn (and resadmr's), Your question on whether any university has developed an MPA with a sponsored programs administration emphasis is a good one. There is a group called the American Society for Public Administration (ASPA), at http://www.aspanet.org/, which has its own nationwide listserv that could be queried about this. Such a contact would be a fine way for the appropriate officers in the professional research administration organizations to begin to advance this issue. Some masters programs in public administration do offer training related to sponsored programs administration such as: proposal writing; study of complex organizations; policy analysis; ethics; budgeting; personnel administration; planning; nonprofit management and so on. But you raise a fine question and if you find an answer, please post to this list. ======================= Glenn Krell, M.P.A., C.R.A.
