The Department of Planning, Public Policy and Management (PPPM)
attracts students from around the world who are interested in the ways
governments, nonprofit organizations, and private-sector organizations
address some of the most important problems facing society today.
Our curriculum emphasizes experiential learning, evidence-based decisionmaking, and interdisciplinary study. The faculty members are
internationally recognized scholars with a wide range of training and
research interests. Our home in Oregon and the Pacific Northwest builds
on the region’s international reputation for livability, pioneering planning,
and innovative policy.
PPPM is located in historic Hendricks Hall in the center of the University
of Oregon campus in Eugene. The department is a strong and active
community, where faculty members and students engage with
professionals and the community to research, learn, and take on important
leadership roles.
We are dedicated to giving our students the power to positively affect not
just their own future, but also the people, communities, and environments
around them. Our dedication to principles of civic responsibility,
environmental sustainability, international understanding, and crossdisciplinary education goes back to the very founding of the school. Our
goal is to provide our students with the skills and mentorship they need to
take on active roles with communities and to work on the complex global
challenges of the twenty-first century. In short, we empower our students
to make good.
