Dr. Brian Kisida, Assistant Professor

"The heart of the Truman School is the students, whose commitment to making the world a better place through service and research is inspiring. I take pride in helping turn their passion into action. By equipping them with rigorous research techniques and interdisciplinary perspectives, they are able to tackle important social problems and find evidence-based policy solutions."

Walt Williams, Spring 2020 Graduate

"I have enjoyed the Truman School of Public Affairs master's program. It is a well-balanced program with excellent faculty and staff that transcends cultural barriers. A perfect master's program choice!"

Julia Tyack, Online MPA Student, Lodi, California

"The Truman School’s respected program attracts a wide range of students in a variety of fields from across the country and the globe, and it has given me a perspective of public affairs that I would not have had the opportunity to experience in a local California MPA program"

U.S. News & World Report ranks the Truman School among the best graduate schools in the nation for Public Affairs and Public Management & Leadership.
