Program Requirements
Our three options, offered in collaboration with other departments on campus, allow you to gain substantive training in a specific policy area to complement your learning about public and nonprofit administration and policy.
Other coursework depends on which interdisciplinary option you choose.
Criminal Justice Concentration
The Criminal Justice concentration will prepare you for a leadership role in criminal justice or law enforcement.
If you currently work in a criminal justice profession and would like to further develop your skills and knowledge to advance in your field or if you are currently an undergraduate wishing to pursue graduate study in criminal justice and public administration this program is a perfect fit for you.
Information Technology and Communication Concentration
The Information Technology and Communication concentration prepares students for IT careers in the public sector or with organizations concerned with technology policy. By blending a strong understanding of technology with practical management and problem-solving skills, this track will empower students to master challenges in information networking, wireless communication, and other advanced technologies.
Customized Course of Study
This option lets students design a custom course of study by earning a graduate certificate that complements the MPA required courses or by selecting elective courses in political science or other fields. This option is ideal for students whose needs are not met by the other concentrations, as well as those who are still in the process of figuring out what career path they would like to pursue.
Social Issues and Policy Concentration
The Social Issues and Policy concentration will prepare you for a leadership role in public or nonprofit agencies that address social problems such as opioid abuse, aging, and poverty.
