E-mail is the best way to get in contact with me. I will try to respond to all course-related e-mails within 24 hours (really), but also remember that life can be busy and chaotic for everyone (including me!), so if I don't respond to your e-mail right away, don't worry!

This site contains the syllabus, schedule, and assignments for PMAP 8521: Program Evaluation, held during Fall 2019 at the Andrew Young School of Policy Studies at Georgia State University.

By the end of this course, you (1) will be literate in the language of causal inference, (2) will communicate evaluation outcomes clearly, and (3) will understand the ethics and limits of data analysis by designing, critiquing, coding, and running rigorous, valid, and feasible evaluations of public sector programs focused on society’s most pressing problems.
