The Howard H. Baker Jr. Center for Public Policy is a nonpartisan institute devoted to education, student engagement and research in public policy. Through classes, student initiatives, public lectures, research symposia and research publications, the center aims to provide policymakers, citizens, scholars, and students with the information and skills necessary to work effectively within our political system and to serve our local, state, national, and global communities. By examining policy and politics through a nonpartisan lens, the Baker Center continues the groundbreaking work of its namesake, Senator Howard H. Baker, Jr., who was nicknamed, “The Great Conciliator” for his ability to cross party lines and encourage lawmakers to cooperate on key issues affecting the public good. In the spirit of Senator Baker’s work, the center offers a number of public lectures and programs on topics across the political spectrum. The center has particular research foci in energy policy, environmental policy, global security, and leadership and governance.
