In the Master of Arts in Policy Studies program<\/a> at the University of Washington Bothell, students gain the skills they need for policy careers in various fields as well as across private and public sectors. They acquire these skills not just in the classroom but also through real-world experience with community partners. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Class of 2025 MAPS students worked on a capstone \u2014 the final project that serves as the culmination of their UW Bothell experience \u2014 that challenged them to solve some of the pressing issues that face the city of Redmond, this year\u2019s partner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cCourses that include a community-based component are some of the most challenging and rewarding courses to develop. I think they are also some of the most rewarding for students,\u201d said Dr. Charlie Collins, associate professor in the School of Interdisciplinary Arts & Sciences<\/a>. \u201cProjects like these are only successful through these deep partnerships. I hope the students take away the importance of connection to the community.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Real benefits for all partners<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

By centering each MAPS cohort capstone around a local partner, Collins said, students benefit from the chance to apply their learning. They are also able to support the needs of the regional community. It\u2019s a mutually beneficial arrangement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe city of Redmond benefited from the insight, passion and values of the students in their studying, evaluating and providing recommendations on community issues that are current and greatly important to the city of Redmond and its residents,\u201d said Steve Fields, Redmond City Council member. \u201cThe students benefited through the intellectual and emotional growth in sharing the experience and burden of determining actions that benefit their community.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just as UW Bothell works to integrate community engagement into its research and teaching wherever possible, Fields said he also makes working in partnership with local organizations and engaged citizens a priority. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s my long-standing belief that a core responsibility of any elected official is to partner with the community to govern together,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fields offered the students several projects to choose from that each related to the city\u2019s policy and strategic planning efforts. At the end of winter quarter, the cohort presented their three projects, which focused on rent stabilization, climate change adaptation and climate change emergency preparedness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grounded in community voices<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Estefania Medina Salas, (MAPS, \u201925), worked on \u201cRent Affordability and Displacement Prevention,\u201d alongside three other students. The housing affordability crisis is an issue she cares deeply about, and the project was an opportunity to dig deeper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI was drawn to this topic because I\u2019ve seen how housing instability impacts people\u2019s lives, and I believe that safe, affordable housing is a basic human right,\u201d she said. \u201cAs a member of already marginalized communities, this topic hit home for me in many ways. My goal was to help make housing more accessible and equitable for vulnerable residents.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The group created a plan aimed at preventing displacement \u2014 focusing on solutions such as rent stabilization, tenant protections, financial and legal aid, and community engagement. Wanting to make sure their recommendations were informed by community needs, they reached out to local organizations as part of their research. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI learned that developing meaningful policy isn\u2019t just about good ideas \u2014 it\u2019s about listening, adapting and building relationships,\u201d Salas said. \u201cThis experience deepened my understanding of the importance of capacity building and long-term support for local organizations. It showed me that policy work is most powerful when it\u2019s grounded in community voices.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Salas said she plans to go to law school after she graduates with her master\u2019s in Policy Studies and wants to work in politics someday, so working with Fields and the city of Redmond was particularly rewarding. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis project reaffirmed my passion for justice and advocacy, and it strengthened my desire to pursue a career in law,\u201d she said. \u201cLong term, I hope to serve in Congress, where I can help craft and pass legislation that addresses issues like this one and uplifts underserved communities. This experience showed me how policy and law intersect, and it deepened my commitment to being a voice for change at the highest levels.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Policy and planning to save lives<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In conversations with Fields, another group of students discovered that the city lacked an evacuation plan that leveraged community engagement \u2014 particularly for climate emergency scenarios that have a growing likelihood of happening more frequently. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe approached this gap by thinking about the most effective way that we could not only evacuate the city but also keep the population psychologically sound during an emergency situation,\u201d said Azaria Hickey (MAPS, \u201925). \u201cWe enjoyed coming up with a project that would help out in an emergency by dispersing vital information and spreading assuredness in a time that would usually invoke chaos and fear. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe were confident that our plan would be one that would aid the whole population of the city of Redmond equitably.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“This experience showed me how policy and law intersect, and it deepened my commitment to being a voice for change at the highest levels.”<\/p>Estefania Medina Salas, MAPS \u201925 <\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Hickey added that the group project manager, Bri Fero (MAPS, \u201925), came up with the idea for a color-coded and zoned evacuation system. It became the foundation for their plan, which was well received by the city. Through Fields\u2019 connections, the team will later present it to the Redmond Fire Department. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA major takeaway following this experience is the need for an equitable emergency evacuation plan that is heavily rooted in community engagement for all<\/em> cities,\u201d Hickey said. \u201cEach city is unique in its resources for public transportation in an emergency situation, languages spoken in a city\u2019s population, disabled demographics, climate risks and many more factors necessary for a city to tailor a plan to be fully prepared for a mass emergency evacuation.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This summer, she will be working on another capstone project focused on a climate action plan for the city of Bothell. Then, after graduation, Hickey said she wants to work for a nonprofit organization or in city and state government. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Information\u202fin action<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Collins noted that students in his capstone practicum class don\u2019t just walk away with a finished project so they can graduate from an academic program. They also leave school with the lessons they learned as well as the social capital and connections they built along the way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe community partner is almost always the highlight in these projects, and that was true for this class,\u201d Collins said. \u201cCouncil member Fields worked closely with the students throughout the quarter, making himself available and maintaining open communication. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe drive and passion of the students were also significant contributors to the success of this partnership,\u201d he added. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Fields, the experience was equally rewarding, and the finished projects offered new perspectives and actionable information to incorporate into his own work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI was surprised by the students\u2019 level of understanding of the complexities of competing interests, diverse viewpoints and potential conflicts that are inherent in decision making to serve the overall public interests. This approach is essential and often overlooked in our political environment today,\u201d Fields said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt was inspiring, fun and a great benefit for me to see brilliant and caring students work with sincerity and commitment.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
