Master of Public Administration - State and Local Administration

The M.P.A. with a concentration in State and Local Administration will provide you with a foundation in advanced public administration skills, but with a more focused view on state and local administration. Our curriculum is designed to help you understand the social, economic, and political context in which public decisions are made. You’ll receive instruction from faculty with public administration experience outside of the classroom, so that what you learn is practical and immediately useful. In addition, you’ll benefit from being part of a program that is accredited by NASPAA, which is widely considered the global standard in public service education. Upon completion of the program, you’ll have obtained the skills necessary to lead public and community agencies, and advance your professional career.
