Local Government Management Concentration

The Career You Want. The Skills You Need.

Become a professional city, county, town or village manager, a growing and dynamic profession. Public Service Professor Bob McEvoy, known for his local government management expertise throughout the United States and the world, leads an expert team which will bring you real examples of how to manage local governments as well as the necessary knowledge and skills to effectively serve our citizens. We directly participate with the organizations and practicing professionals that will be important to your career such as the International City County Management Association, where Professor McEvoy, a former ICMA Vice President, is a member of the Government Affairs and Policy Committee and the Credentialing Board, as well as the National Association of County Administrators (NACA). The design of our expert concentration team is the result of a continuing analysis of the current and future needs of local governments.
