Highlight on Students

“Graduate study at Hopkins is more than an education; it's an experience. Many of these lessons I learned at Hopkins have served me well on Capitol Hill, the campaign trail, and now at the White House."

- Kasey Pipes,
Associate Director of the Office of Strategic Initiatives,
The White House

The Master of Arts in Government program at Hopkins serves professionals working both inside and outside of the Beltway working on political issues, and on issues affected by policy and legislation. Many students work for the executive branch, Congress, journals, and advocacy organizations of many different kinds. Students often hold positions of authority and are seeking greater education and credentials to strengthen their work and standing. Many directly apply the research of their Master's thesis to their professional work.
