BROADER HIGHER EDUCATION EXPERIENCE. Public Works specializes in public policy innovation and development, especially in the fields of workforce development and its intersection with higher education.

We worked with CSU on three separate projects: • Putting together an ongoing process for collaboration between the university and the California business community to improve alignment between the university curriculum and the needs of the state’s economy; • Studying the need for applied education doctorates in California to improve teaching throughout the state (CSU originated as a “normal school,” and it retains the mission of educating most of the state’s educators); and • Designing a statewide program uni...
