To STATe ThAT LArrY SchroeDer hAS been a public servant
for the majority of his professional life would be an understatement.
Larry earned his Master’s and Doctorate in Public Administration (1986,
2008, respectively), choosing La Verne because of its reputation “for offering
excellent degree programs focusing on practitioners of Public Administration.”
Earning his MPA resulted in a promotion to “Senior Administrative
Analyst at the City of Glendora, eventually [leading] to an opportunity
to become the Director of Finance.” Moving into the Finance Director
position with the City of Lakewood, Larry decided to return for his
Doctor of Public Administration.
Earning his DPA has accentuated Larry’s personal and professional life.
As he puts it, “I believe that having a Doctorate in Public Administration
was one of the many things the contributed to my election to the
Claremont City Council in 2009. As Mayor, I continue to use many
of the theories and guiding principles I learned in making decisions
for the benefit of the citizens of Claremont.”
In sum, Larry’s experience at the University of La Verne has had a profound
effect on him and his constituents: “My degrees from La Verne have
assisted me in segueing from a career as a public administrator into
my roles as policy maker, teacher, and consultant.”
Larry SchroederMPA 1986DPA 2008
“Receiving my education at the University of La Verne facilitated my development as a skilled public administrator, enhanced my opportunities for advancement, and the personal and professional contacts I made continue to be valuable resources in my life.”

Through its academic and co-curricular
programs, the University provides rich
educational opportunities that relate to both
the academic and personal development of
its students. Philosophically, the University
emphasizes four major concerns that affirm
a positive and rewarding life for its students:
Values Orientation — affirming a philosophy
of life that actively supports the health of the
planet and its people.
Community and Diversity — encouraging
students to understand and appreciate the
diversity of cultures existing locally, nationally,
and internationally.
Lifelong Learning — teaching students how
to learn, how to think critically, how to do
responsible research, and how to access and
integrate information to prepare them for
career growth, flexibility, and continued
personal growth.
Community Service — encouraging students
to experience the responsibilities and rewards
of serving the human and ecological community.
CourseworkThe DPA academic year consists of two semesters (Fall and Spring).
Students enter in the Fall semester that typically begins the second
weekend in September and ends at the conclusion of the second
weekend in December. Classes resume in the Spring semester that
typically begins the second week in February, and ends at the conclusion
of the second weekend in May.
Each semester, students complete three complementary courses designed
to reflect the interdisciplinary nature of public administration. The
curriculum itself is selected to reflect the faculty’s view of the complex
role of and challenges facing the public executive. Each course focuses
on theoretical understandings and practical competencies that are
important to the performance of this role.
4
Program Design: How the Program WorksThe DPA program accommodates the professional adult with weekend
classes. The complete curriculum totals 54 semester hours of course
work, followed by additional semester hours of dissertation units (2
units to 22 units). The curriculum is designed so that each individual
engages in coursework as a first year, second year, or third year student.
Students must successfully complete the entire curriculum for each
year before progressing to the next — academic progress is evaluated
every semester. After successful completion of the DPA core curriculum,
students apply for advancement to candidacy — after which they begin
working with a committee towards completion of their dissertation.
DPA Instructional ModelThe instructional model of the Doctoral Program in Public Administration
is unique among other doctoral programs in the country. It has three
primary characteristics: the year-based curriculum, the intensive, and
the classroom instruction.
5
Philosophical OverviewThe University of La Verne’s Doctorate
in Public Administration program assists
professionals who are motivated to improve
their leadership, management, and decision-
making skills. The DPA program engages
the professional in a unique process where
students play an integral role in the management
of learning. The program is inter-disciplinary
in design and incorporates international and
comparative experiences.
Program ValuesLa Verne’s Department of Public Administration
has built an educational environment that
empowers students to become scholarly
practitioners and dynamic individuals
who can combine substantial knowledge
and thoughtful understanding of theory
with capable, practical management and lead-
ership. The Department continuously
provides high quality, student-oriented
learning by seeking and fostering qualified,
responsible, dedicated faculty who believe
in and can deliver its key values:
•Educational excellence
•Personal and professional success for
students
•Relevant course work
Developing The Scholarly PractitionerThe values and tenets of the Public Administration Department inspire
the faculty to facilitate two primary goals for you, the DPA student:
•You can acquire knowledge and skills in such areas as
leadership, conflict management, ethics, decision making,
and management processes. This will prepare you to assume
greater administrative responsibility.
•You can learn methodologies that better enable you to
approach a variety of issues from the perspectives of logical
inquiry, critical thinking, and systematic problem solving.
The DPA prepares you to assume vital roles as outstanding, insightful
contributors to the public and service sectors. The curriculum offers
state-of-the-art management courses that stress creativity, responsible
leadership, values, building the essential abilities to anticipate,
interpret, and manage change in a challenging and complex workplace.
The DPA StudentThe Doctor of Public Administration program at the University of
La Verne has a current population of over 120 students. Of this group,
about 10% are international students and 50% are female. The average
age of the students in the program is 40, and over 75% work as
managers, administrators, or entrepreneurs.
What makes the DPA program unique is the synergy created by the
enthusiasm, knowledge, and experience of a multi-disciplinary faculty
added to a highly-diverse student population. The program seeks to
gather intelligent, professional adult practitioners and professors.
Each participant contributes to the ever-expanding richness of
comparative and international experiences.
Course DeliveryAll students in the DPA program attend three weekend Intensives each
semester. In addition to the Intensive weekends, students will select a
group that meets on campus.
You will meet six times a semester for approximately six hours each
meeting (usually every other Saturday).
The purpose of the group meetings is to provide a collaborative,
seminar-like context for students and faculty together to discuss and
understand the readings and to work on team projects. Students also
receive individual guidance and assistance from faculty and colleagues
on individual projects and research courses. Students must attend all
Intensives and Group Meetings.
6
The IntensivesThree Intensive seminars are held each semester and are an integral
part of the program curriculum. They last three days: Friday, Saturday,
and Sunday. The first Intensive, held at the opening of the semester,
is called Theme Orientation. As the name suggests, its purpose is to
orient the student to the semester. In particular, the opening Intensive
reviews the objectives of the semester, explains individual and team
project requirements, and provides an overview of the major theories
and concepts that underlie the semester themes.
The second Intensive, called the Midterm Intensive, is held near the
middle of the semester. Its purpose is to further stimulate and expand
students’ depth of understanding of semester themes. Guest speakers
with special expertise and/or experience with semester themes are
often invited to augment faculty lectures and learning activities.
The final Intensive concludes the semester. Its major purposes are to
give students and their teammates the opportunity to share their work
with faculty and fellow students for their review and evaluation, make
professional presentations, and provide an opportunity to synthesize
semester learnings.
7
DissertationIn addition to completing the three years
of coursework, the DPA student produces a
dissertation of publishable quality as part of
the program requirements. This document
exhibits thorough, disciplined inquiry
into policy, organization, leadership, or
management issues. Led by a dissertation
advisor who is a full-time faculty member,
the student forms a dissertation committee
for advisement from the time of study design
to oral defense. Because of the professional
nature of the DPA program, a qualified
practitioner (holding an earned doctorate)
ordinarily participates on the dissertation
committee of the doctoral candidate. Students
must successfully complete their coursework,
pass comprehensive exams, and advance to
candidacy prior to forming a committee and
beginning their dissertation research.
