[hyperlink: http://www.northernpublicaffairs.ca/index/about/]History of SPPA:In 1942 community leaders in Ottawa, recognizing the need for specialized education to meet the demands of a growing public service, created Carleton College (which was to become Carleton University in 1952) with public administration and journalism as its first programs. The first graduate degree in public administration was awarded in 1946. With support from the Atkinson Foundation, the School of Public Administration was established in 1953. [1] The PhD in Public Policy was created in 1992 – also a first in Canada – and in 2001 the school was renamed the School of Public Policy and Administration. Faculty of Public AffairsSPPA is situated in a unique Faculty of Public Affairs (FPA) which brings together 12 units, including other professional schools (Norman Paterson School of International Affairs; School of Journalism and Communication;Social Work), academic disciplines (Economics; Law and Legal Studies; Political Science), interdisciplinary Institutes (Criminology and Criminal Justice; European, Russian and Eurasian Studies; Political Economy; African Studies), the Clayton H.
