Public Policy and Administration Practice Translation Memos (15%): The practice translation memos are designed to instill in students the competency to translate public policy and administration research into practice. In doing so, students will demonstrate the ability to access, identify, evaluate, and use effectively the extant research on substantive topics. Translation memorandums should be addressed to either a supervisor or elected official(s). Lastly, students must finish with a set of recommendations on how either implement or apply the articles recommendations/findings, or the students own recommendations based on their reading of the article.
