Faculty Research Spotlight

David Neumark: Minimum Wages - Research and Policy

The rate of poverty and the degree of income inequality in the United States are both very high, and policymakers struggle with the design of policies to reduce poverty and increase economic resources of low-income families.

Director’s Welcome

Welcome to the University of California, Irvine Master of Public Policy Program (MPP)! As the Director of the MPP, it's fun to welcome new students.  As I do so this year, I’m awe-struck by how much we have accomplished in such a short period of time. We have wonderful momentum.

There are many metrics by which one can measure success and as I reflecton all we  (students, faculty, administration) accomplished over the last year, it is hard not to feel both humbled and proud of our successful launch of the MPP program.
