Public Service Minor


The Public Service minor is designed for students interested in careers that focus on serving others, usually through government agencies and nonprofit organizations. These careers may involve policy making, implementation and evaluation in areas such as: community and economic development, policing and emergency management, health care and education administration, community and public art programs, and so on. Some courses are offered online, and others are internships or practicums that allow students to apply classroom learning in a government, nonprofit, or related organization in the northern Kentucky/Greater Cincinnati region, the state capital of Frankfort, or another locale (maximum 6 credit hours in internships and practicums). For students interested in pursuing a Master of Public Administration at NKU, the three required courses (PAD 500 , 501 , and 511 ) may be waived by the MPA Admission Committee, after review of transcripts and consultation with the student.
