The Education Policy Center (EPC) at Michigan State University serves the state and the nation by generating, identifying, analyzing and disseminating research findings on key education policy issues. EPC staff compile, clean, manage, analyze and provide reliable education data and expert, non-partisan testimony to a variety of audiences to inform decision-making at the local, state and national levels. The Center supports the work of doctoral candidates and serves as a venue for researchers across disciplines to publish education-related work in both scholarly and mainstream formats.
