Below are the goals of the University of Central Florida with an explanation of how the Department of Public Administration is meeting the identified goals of the university. Goal 1: Offer the best undergraduate education available in Florida. Administrative Writing Course With a university-wide initiative to increase students’ writing skills, a number of writing initiatives were started in Public Administration. With direction and feedback from the faculty and the Public Administration Advisory Board, Dr. Claire Knox designed PAD 3733: Administrative Writing in the Public Sector. The course design includes three weeks of grammar and APA style review. Then, eight genres of government writing are covered in the remaining weeks of the semester: Rules, Regulations, and Administrative Procedures Executive Summaries and Abstracts Policy Handbooks and Guides Memorandums Press Releases Professional Report Writing Grant Proposal Writing Government Websites Stressing an audience-centered approach to writing, short writing and editing assignments are scheduled each week to mimic a public sector work environment. The summer 2011 semester class completed a client-based project for the Central Florida ASPA Chapter. The four deliverables were: an exemplar public servant biography, press release, twitter feeds, and photo with caption. These documents were used for the Central Florida ASPA’s celebration of public servants campaign. Online Writing Resources The Public Administration website now has a designated page of writing and APA style resources for students. These resources include website links to APA tutorials and paper formatting videos, Purdue’s Online Writing Lab, UCF’s Writing Center, and an Editing Techniques and Advice sheet. The 2-page editing guide, designed by Dr. Knox, provides a checklist for students to use while editing papers. Each item on this list refers students to the APA Manual if additional information is needed. In addition an online tutorial has been developed for use in all of our courses to improve writing at the undergraduate and graduate levels. American Humanics Becomes the Nonprofit Leadership Alliance To respond to the marketplace, the national board for American Humanics changed their name to the Nonprofit Leadership Alliance. In addition to the name change, the Nonprofit Leadership Alliance will begin to offer national nonprofit professional certification to professionals currently working in the nonprofit sector and to graduate students in a certificate or masters’ program.

UCF Nonprofit Advisory Board Hosts National Nonprofit Leadership Institute In January 2011 the annual Management/Leadership Institute of the Nonprofit Leadership Alliance was held at the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resort in Orlando and hosted by our UCF Nonprofit Advisory Board Members. Dr. Hitt and Dr. Ann Manley were the Co-Chairs for the conference, which brought together over 800 socially conscious, career-minded students, academic professionals, and nonprofit leaders for learning, networking, and professional development. This Nonprofit Leadership Institute is the only national forum of its kind, and our 10th Annual Community Partners Nonprofit Management Conference was held in conjunction with the national conference. Over 80 local nonprofit professionals spent the day in workshops discussing the corporate perspective on philanthropy.

Nonprofit Management Student Association The American Humanics Student Association also went through a name change in 2011 becoming the new “Nonprofit Management Student Association” (NMSA) welcoming students from all over the university to join. The purpose of the student association is to provide educational and networking opportunities for students interested in working in the nonprofit sector. One of the exciting things the NMSA has done is to create a blog about their opportunities and current nonprofit management research and information. You can read their blog at http://nmsaucf.blogspot.com.

Students (6) Receive National Scholarships In 2011, Ashley Caycedo, Ashley Gonzalez, Marcus Pruitt, Rosalyn Ram, and Scott Johnson received the NextGen Scholarship of $4,500 to provide a stipend during their internship. This scholarship is partially underwritten by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation to support education in the nonprofit sector and designed to help students with demonstrated leadership potential complete their Nonprofit Leadership Alliance certification requirements, specifically the minimum 300-hour nonprofit internship. PhD program graduate, Fatih Demiroz, received the Annual ASPA Conference Scholarship from the Section on Public Performance and Management of the American Society for Public Administration. Students Visit Tallahassee –5th Annual Public Administration Tallahassee Legislative Trip During the week of February 16-18, 2011, members from the Master of Public Administration Student Association (MPASA) and its undergraduate counterpart, the Organization for Public Administration (OPA), visited Florida’s state capitol, Tallahassee, to experience state government operations firsthand. During their three-day trip, students had the opportunity to attend legislative committee meetings relating to higher education and state employee pensions. Students enjoyed private meetings and discussions with Lt. Governor Jennifer Carroll, Senate President Mike Haridopolos, and State Representatives/UCF Alumni Mike Horner and Steve Crisafulli. In addition, students met with Secretary of State Kurt Browning, Secretary of Agriculture and Consumer Services cabinet staff, and Volunteer Florida’s Chief Executive Director Wendy Spencer. On the final day of the trip, before heading back to UCF, students visited with the Florida Department of Elderly Affairs’ Emergency Coordinating Officer and toured the State Emergency Operations Center. The trip was coordinated by Assistant Professor Thomas Bryer and Fred Kittinger, UCF’s Associate Vice-President for University Relations.

6th Annual Public Administration Tallahassee Legislative Trip During the last week of February 2012 students Marie Michel, Michael Miller, Reggie Paros, Kelda Senior, and Sarah Watson traveled to Florida’s capital to learn more about public administration in the legislative process. The students met with several members of state government including Lt. Governor Jennifer Carroll, Secretary of State Ken Detzner, and state Senator Bill Simmons. Kelda Senior said “One highlight was meeting with Florida Secretary of State Ken Detzner, who stated that it has been his time in public service that has been the most rewarding because he has been able to impact the lives of Floridians directly and meaningfully. His insight served as a reminder to me that public servants are still a respected and essential part of society.” In addition, students participated in a mock debate on the Senate floor. After visiting the Capitol, students toured the state Emergency Operations Center and learned how all the intricate components of the State Emergency Response Team (SERT) come together in times of crisis. This year’s trip was led by Fred Kittinger, Maria Augustin and Dr. Qian Hu.

Disaster Resiliency and Sustainability Workshop Program The economic, environmental, and social impacts of natural events can be staggering. Although communities cannot control when and the manner in which a natural hazard occurs, communities can improve their resiliency to such events. With support from the US Department of Agriculture (USDA), School of Public Administration faculty members Naim Kapucu and Christopher Hawkins (with Fernando Rivera of Sociology) organized a workshop on disaster resiliency at the University of Central Florida on March 29-30, 2012. The workshop investigated how communities, particularly rural communities, can become more resilient to natural hazards and disasters. Participation to the workshop was invitation based. More information about the workshop can be found at http://www2.cohpa.ucf.edu/pubadm/workshops.html. The papers presented at the workshop are available online. Increased Outreach – Our school sends an electronic newsletter weekly and e-mails to students regarding specific internship and job opportunities. On the School of Public Administration website, the link School News has also been enhanced to list these opportunities. The NLA students have developed a very active blog and use twitter to update others on their activities. The nonprofit management lecture series is a partnership with the Nonprofit Management Student Association and the Collegiate Chapter of the Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP), where top leaders in nonprofit management speak to students about the issues in the profession. The students have also partnered with the Young Nonprofit Professionals Network (YNPN) to promote professional networking opportunities.

Goal 2: Achieve international prominence in graduate study and research.

Grant Funding Secured by Faculty ($2,099,204) National Ranking – Our MNM program is ranked 25th and our MPA program is ranked 59th by US News and World Report, making our school unique with two nationally ranked programs at UCF.

Nonprofit Capacity Building and Performance Measure Grant In 2010, the Center for Public and Nonprofit Management secured a two-year grant from the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS). The grant award was for $320,000 ($160,000 from CNCS and a matching fund of $160,000 from UCF Partners). Ten nonprofit organizations from west Orange, south Lake and south Sumter counties were selected to receive a personalized performance measurement system and database to improve performance. Dr. Claire Knox is PI on this grant and Drs. Feldheim and Wang are CoPIs. Building Disaster Resilience and Sustainability Grant This is a two year grant secured in 2010 by the CPNM from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), the National Science Foundation (NSF), and the Cooperative State Research, Education, and Extension Service (CSREES) for $387,557.39 to build disaster resilience and sustainability in rural communities in central Florida through the applications of social network analysis. Naim Kapucu is the principle investigator and Dr. Chris Hawkins is the co-investigator. This project seeks to assess current hazard mitigation practices, emergency response networks, and disaster recovery methods used by rural counties and rural parts of urban counties in Central Florida. Specifically, the project will address Public Management and Policy, Planning and Rural Community Development, and Sociological, Behavioral and Social Networks perspectives to uncover fundamental relationships governing the functioning of resilient communities in response to disasters. Findings from this research will make a substantial contribution to those who are responsible for risk reduction and response in their respective communities. Creating Collaborative Infrastructure in Virtual Organizations Grant Naim Kapucu was one of several researchers to receive a $400,000 grant from the National Science Foundation to expand knowledge on virtual organizations by utilizing meta-analytic, field, and laboratory methods. The research approach is to examine a theoretically-based model of virtual organizational effectiveness using meta-analytic integration, field research on emergency response systems, and laboratory experimentation. VISTA Project Designed to Improve Outcomes for Homeless Students Thomas Bryer and Maria-Elena Augustin the Director and Assistant Director respectively of the CPNM have received a three-year grant from the Corporation for National and Community Service to host 15 Volunteers in Service to America (VISTA) beginning in summer 2012. VISTAs will receive expert training from faculty and staff members affiliated with the CPNM, and then they will be placed in partner school districts, nonprofit and faith-based organizations in Orange and Seminole counties. The goal is to increase capacity to improve outcomes for homeless students. The value in service to the community is$369,433 reflective of the salaries of the VISTAs. This is an exciting new way for the CPNM and our school to serve our community.
