Program Options

We provide two options for completing the program:

  • Our full-time MPA program (58 credits) allows students to earn the degree in two years. Full-time MPA students may also apply for our JD/MPA program, which offers a joint law and MPA degree.
  • Our Executive MPA program (42 credits) is designed for working professionals with at least four years of relevant full-time work experience. EMPA students complete their coursework one evening per week over three years.

Fast-tracking the MPA or EMPA program can be done in certain circumstances and is determined on a case-by-case basis. Students interested in fast-tracking may reach out to the Associate Director for consideration.
