Experience Harris for yourself. Visit campus to engage with your future network.

Campus Visit Program

Please note from December 17, 2018 - January 1, 2019 we will be relocating from the Harris building to the Keller Center. During this time we will not be able to host campus visits or accept walk-in appointments. 

Harris Public Policy welcomes campus visitors on select weekdays throughout the Fall Quarter (October-December). A campus visit includes:

  • Attending a class
  • Coffee with a current student
  • Meeting with a staff member in Admissions

Prospective students interested in the MACRM and PhD programs are encouraged to visit on Wednesdays.
