About this Project
The Institute for Public Administration (IPA) students and alumni know first-hand the impact of paid internships and tuition scholarships.
Last October 2023, we celebrated IPA’s 50th anniversary and reaffirmed our commitment to improving the quality of life for all Delawareans. Our alumni panel reflected on their time at IPA, emphasizing the difference financial support made for them, especially through our programs that directly established real-world skills for their future careers.
“The Legislative Fellows opportunity was so key for me in getting lifelong connections that have influenced my work,” said Melanie Ross Levin, a 2005 graduate of the Master of Public Administration program. Melanie is now the Director of the Office of Women’s Advancement and Advocacy, State of Delaware.
