Service to Service

The O’Neill School is proud to join the Volcker Alliance and We the Veterans and Military Families’ Service to Service initiative. This national program strengthens pathways for veterans and their families to pursue graduate education in public affairs and prepare for impactful careers in state and local government. Through this partnership, we are expanding educational opportunities to military veterans and offering tailored student support and career-focused programming to help Service to Service Fellows thrive during their master’s studies and beyond.

Graduate certificates

Graduate students can use the O’Neill School’s certificate programs to supplement their primary fields of study—taking, for example, the certificate courses as part of a doctoral or master’s degree minor.

Employees of public and private sector agencies seeking graduate-level courses, and especially those changing from professional or technical roles to managerial roles, also find these certificate programs beneficial.
