2026 MPA Program and Mobile App

The DRAFT MPA 2026 Program IS HERE!

A pdf copy of the program is now available! CLICK THIS LINK to see the most recent PDF (last updated 2.2.26). The pdf is searchable so please search for your submission. The pdf has lots of things not quite ready (e.g., the schedule at a glance, the table of contents with page numbers, the author index). Many of these things won’t be set until we stop making edits that change page numbers.

It is still possible to make changes to the program! Email mjb70@psu.edu to request the change. Please include the original text and then what you want changed; if you need to add authors make sure to include names, affiliations, and emails. Changes can be made to the PDF document in time for printing until March 5th. After that, only changes to the mobile app can occur. 

You can find a map of the Palmer House rooms HERE.

You can find instructions for paper talks, posters, and moderators HERE.

The MPA 2026 Mobile App IS NOT YET READY!

Once the MPA Mobile app is ready to go, you will CLICK THIS LINK to get info on how to download and what code to use when you log in. Again, there is a code (MPA26) to access the conference material.

Because the conference does not have free Wifi, please download the app BEFORE coming to the conference! This is an absolute must so please do so ASAP.

NOTE: There is no wifi in the presentation rooms or conference rooms. People staying at the hotel can get wifi in their rooms but there is no wifi provided by the conference (due to the significant costs associated with purchasing wifi from the hotel).
