The ICRPS program aims to create a high-level, international, inter-disciplinary, and research-based learning environment for future leaders in rural policy development, research, teaching, and practice. The program provides a post-graduate program in comparative rural policy studies at post-secondary educational institutions in North America and the European Union.<\/p>\n
ICRPS hosts an intensive two-week summer program attended by graduate students, faculty, and policy analysts. On average, 24 students and 15 faculty members participate each year.
