The Goal

Public management

The Specialization Course in Public Administration Management (MAP) is an undergraduate program (20 CFU credits) aimed at fostering the executive development of high-potential figures in public agencies and companies. Specifically, MAP aims to delve into key management levers for public, publicly-owned, and in-house public administrations, in an integrated and coherent manner in order to strengthen strategic public resource management skills

Structure and content

MAP's structure is based on a public leadership model developed by the SDA Bocconi faculty and is characterized by highly experiential teaching, alternating traditional on campus moments with individual field activities (Project Work), case-based exercises (incidents), and group work sessions. The program is designed to be compatible with participants' professional commitments. 

The formula is "blended," combining face-to-face classes at the Bocconi Urban Campus in Milano with distance learning sessions

The program offers you a total commitment of 17 days during which you will tackle five courses.

Indicative schedule for on-campus classes: 8:30 am–5:45 pm. Classes start at 12:00 pm on the first day of the module and end at 4:00 pm on the last day.

Specialization Course (20 CFU credits)

Bocconi University gives MAP the status of an Specialization Course established under Law 341/1990. The Specialization Course requires the passing of learning tests at the end of each module and the writing of a final Project Work, the subject of which may be the introduction or analysis of a management tool at the home institution or company. Upon successful completion of the training course, 20 credits (CFUs) and the attainment of the Specialization Course in Public Administration Management are recognized. 

Given the content and target audience, MAP participants share teaching with EMMAP trainees, thus having the opportunity to connect with an unparalleled network of public managers.
