The Leadership in the Public Sector on-line degree completion program focuses on providing non-traditional students with a liberal arts foundation in the ethical, theoretical, and policy analytical skills necessary to be effective leaders in public sector organizations. Admission to LPS: Please note that current N.C. State students are not allowed to transfer to this major. The only N. C. State students who can apply are those who have not been at the University for at least 3 years and are applying for readmission.
