An MPA degree is a versatile degree that helps graduates become leaders and make a difference.

The program is designed to meet the growing need to advance public policy, enhance public management, and bridge the private and public sectors.  Its curricular focus is grounded in a comprehensive view of public service education that equips students with the skills needed to implement effective policy; manage organizations with diverse stakeholders; and apply rigorous, evidence-based analysis to inform decision-making.

Some of the careers that would benefit from the MPA degree include: Emergency Management, Law Enforcement, Risk Management, Environmental Consulting, City/Parks/Community Development and Planning, Public Policy Administration, Health Care Services, Politics, Human Resources, Non-Profit Foundations, Public Relations, Economic Consulting, Education Administration, and Research/Data Analytics.

With two different learning modalities available (Independent Study and Directed Studies), students have the flexibility to choose the format that best fits their life, either working independently at their own pace or, with a cohort of other students, both with the support of a faculty mentor. Students will typically complete one course at a time and two courses, or six credits, per semester. A total of 30 credits are needed to complete the program, however students can apply to have up to 15 credits from previously-taken coursework or experiential learning transferred.

To assist students with the payment of tuition, the University offers a completely interest-free installment plan - each semester, the student only needs to make a 30% down-payment at the time of enrollment, followed by 3 monthly installments.
