org, "NASPAA believes it is imperative that MPA/MPP
students' knowledge on 'global health security' is
furthered so they are prepared to act during a pub-
lic health crisis." There were several iterations of the
simulation and each time our students had to think
on their feet to come up with actionable solutions
to the scenarios assigned to them. Shifa, Nicole and
Krystal agreed that the conference helped them un-
derstand the real world implications of simulation
based learning.
Although they didn't advance to the final round, Shifa,
Nicole, and Krystal enjoyed the competition and ben-
efitted from networking with their peers from other
NASPAA accredited institutions and gained a first-
hand understanding of the merits of simulation-based
learning in public affairs education. They were able to
exercise their leadership skills, oral presentation com-
petencies and policy memo writing abilities as they
progressed through the day at the competition. The
MPA program is grateful to the College of Liberal Arts,
the Department of Political Science and the William P.
Hobby Center for Public Service for providing the req-
uisite funding for this trip. The program hopes to send
a bigger contingent of students to this competition in
the coming years.30
