The Use of Case Study Analysis in Public Affairs Education: Linking Theory and Practice
Powell, David C.
Teaching Public Administration, v40 n3 p410-421 Oct 2022
Case study analysis has been used for many years across a variety of disciplines. One of the primary advantages of case study analysis is its ability to illustrate the nexus between theory and practice. This paper explores the use of case study analysis as a culminating experience in a large Master of Public Administration (MPA) program in the western United States. Case studies are examined using an established approach to determine the type, structure, and source of these cases. The project also examines alumni perspectives regarding the utility of case studies relative to their careers.
