Harvard Kennedy School MC-MPA Summer Program

[Sisko23]

Hey guys,

Does anyone have any direct information as to what the Harvard Kennedy School MC-MPA Summer  program entails? Namely:

- Is it a five-week program consisting of graded courses?

- Alternatively, is it primarily more like a summer conference, seminar or workshop (non-graded) that serves to provide an overview of HKS and acclimate students to life at HKS?

I only inquire out of curiosity, as I already have several graduate degrees -- including a Master's from Harvard. Like many international students, I'm just wondering if I need to do any prep coursework prior to the HKS Mid-Career Summer Program in order to be successful.

Thanks for any help you can offer. Only serious, thoughtful replies, please!
