Even as a beginner course, this was a very flat and shallow course for beginners who want to understand the way public administration generally works. It's just a series of slide shows and academic constructs with very weak real-life examples and applications. I could have just turned to YouTube to listen to the concepts being presented here. Simply mediocre at best, and a student rip-off at worst.

So far, there just seem to be a lot of theories presented, but I don't feel like I know what I need to know about public health admin. I'd like to see more examples in actions.

the simplicity of the lecture on the subject matter makes it easier of an audience to digest it and relate it to day to day administrative practices, rules and regulations in action in the public sphere.
