    Yerevan State University Presents Armenian Translation of Public
    Administration Book as Part of U.S. Government Program
    On October 23, 2006 Yerevan State University (YSU) presented an Armenian
    translation of Robert Denhardt´s "Theories of Public Administration" book,
    as well as a CD of 1,500 pages of Armenian-language resources on Public
    Administration. This was one of the results of a three-year Educational
    Partnership Program between Arizona State University (ASU) and Yerevan State
    University funded by the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs of the
    U.S. Department of State.
    The program, entitled "Refashioning the Social Sciences and Practitioner
    Training in Public Administration," facilitated the development of an M.A.
    degree program in Public Administration at YSU, encouraged professional
    training and curricular reform through reciprocal semester visits of ASU and
    YSU faculty in the social sciences and Public Administration, and enriched
    the dynamic new program in Armenian studies at ASU. As part of the program,
    nine YSU professors developed approximately 30 new courses in Public
    Administration during their intensive study and collaboration at ASU. In
    addition, ASU faculty members traveled to YSU to teach courses and work on
    resource development with their local partners. At present, 20 students are
    enrolled in the M.A. program in Public Administration, and they expect to
    graduate in May of 2006. Emphasizing the success of the Arizona State
    University-Yerevan State University partnership, YSU representatives stated
    that they hoped to expand the program to the undergraduate level.
