What is the Cornell Institute for Public Affairs (CIPA)?
CIPA is a two-year public affairs program at Cornell University, leading to the Master of Public Administration (M.P.A.) degree. CIPA fellows have the flexibility to design an individualized course of study using faculty resources from across the university. This extraordinary breadth of opportunity, complemented by the wealth and diversity of public policy expertise that exists on the Cornell campus, serves as a catalyst for innovative thought and study.
