The Social Policy Analysis and Planning specialization emphasizes the principles of social welfare and the use, development, and protection of human and societal resources within a community-oriented framework. Graduates in this field seek the best use of human, material, and economic resources to lead communities to more effectively organize their health and human service delivery systems. While covering an array of practice environments (urban, rural, community, regional and national), the international focus on sustainable development is an integral part of this specialization.
