The School of Public Policy has grown from a small institute established in 1990 within George Mason University into one of the largest and best public policy schools in the country. Since becoming a School in July 2000, SPP has been the fastest growing unit within the university, with an increased enrollment of more than 70 percent even as admission standards have become more stringent.

The School has attracted top faculty in the field and become increasingly selective in choosing qualified students. At the same time, the School has become an indispensable resource for policymakers at all levels of private and public organizations, attracting tens of millions of dollars in grants to support research in our laboratories and centers.

The faculty attract financial support from major corporate partners in the form of grants, contracts, and direct contributions. And the School is committed to finding new ways to redirect these resources back into the community by applying the theories and research developed in the classroom to real-world problems to help contribute to a better world.
