Pi Alpha Alpha

Pi Alpha Alpha Logo

Pi Alpha Alpha is the Global Honor Society for Public Affairs and Administration Programs. Pi Alpha Alpha is run by NASPAA: The Global Standard in Public Service Education.

I pledge my support for the intellectual and professional advancement of the art and science of public administration. I shall honor and respect the virtues and values of public service and those who serve. I shall uphold the eternal need for education that imbues public administrators with traditions of democratic governance. Moreover, as a member of Pi Alpha Alpha, I shall uphold the highest ethical standards applying to public service and will endeavor to encourage and engage in meaningful interaction with other members.

To date there are more than 160 chapters. Pi Alpha Alpha was established to encourage and recognize outstanding scholarship in the field.
