Public administration is the implementation of government policy, as well as an academic discipline studying this implementation and preparing students to be capable civil servants in their communities. A primary objective of public administration is to work towards a better-functioning government, creating policies that serve the everyday needs of citizens. Public administration is multi-disciplinary in nature, and one view of the discipline divides the field into six sub-fields of focus: human resources, organizational theory, policy analysis, statistics, budgeting, and ethics.
