The American Society for Public Administration (ASPA) is a professional association dedicated to promoting excellence in public service. We are so proud of our faculty and the impact they make in our student’s lives. From Dr. Fraser: We try to get our public servants before they enter the public service. So, what does that mean? We try to get them in their undergrad, grad, and Ph.D. degrees. So that we can mentor, coach, develop, and help them in their professional as well as academic careers. So, we have many resources and opportunities to network and to learn from each other and from professionals all around the country because ASPA is a global organization all over the world. We are focused on improving the delivery of public service and how we teach public service. #fiu #pawsup #leaders #unstoppable #floridainternationaluniversity #publicadministrators #fiualumni #goverment #local #state #federal #nonprofit #aspa #sunnyislesbeach Florida International University ASPA South Florida Chapter FIU Alumni FIU Steven J.
