📚About the Program

All entering MPA students are required to enroll in the core program classes during the first semester of the program. Other required core classes are taken throughout the MPA program. Students will select a sector (local government, state and federal government, or nonprofit) during their first semester, and take courses from the sector area and elective courses to prepare for a career where they can effectively administer in government and nonprofit organizations. Because of the intensity of the courses and the number of hours spent in teamwork outside the classroom, students cannot work during the first semester of the program. The full-time MPA program is designed to provide an understanding of the essential body of knowledge and to develop the basic skills needed for professional management. Such essentials include quantitative analysis, managerial economics, organizational behavior, strategy, human resource management, accounting, budget and finance, ethics, and communication. These skills are taught through practical class and field experiences, case studies, formal and computer simulations, and special workshops and seminars. Second-year courses are designed around an individual’s desired sector and skill areas. Sectors include local government, state and federal government, and nonprofit. Skills include resource development, program management, and finance. By selecting a sector and a skill area, students are uniquely prepared for a career where they can effectively administer in government and nonprofit programs. Show less
