  Beatriz Robles
Graduate Student, Executive Masters in Public Administration
Award Recipient, de Sardon-Glass Fellowships

 My name is Beatriz Robles, and I am lawyer of the Catolic University of Perú and  now I am studying for my Masters  in Public Administration in the E.M.P.A Program of the Maxwell School of Public Administration and Citizenship. 

 

 My interest in the Masters in Public Administration can be explained because I have worked in different departments of my country (Perú) like the Agriculture Department, the Homeland Security Department, the Promotion of Employment and Labour Department and the Women Affairs and Social Development Department, and having always been part of the top direction, I am convinced that our country needs not only well prepared professionals but also civil servants who have had the opportunity to learn of the interchange of experiences and who are able to search new response to our old problems, problems that in many cases are present in all Latin American. 

 

 I invite you to join to the adventure to study here, I am sure that you will enjoy the experience as much as I do
