A brief description of the graduate minor, concentration or certificate:
Our master's degree in Public Administration is designed to cater to the needs of public and not-for-profit entities. Through a multi-pronged curriculum, Master of Public Administration graduates qualify for positions that require strong analytical and administrative skills, ability to apply various management tools, and in-depth knowledge in specific policy areas. The very close interaction with local government agencies, health care entities and the non-profit sector provides a unique work/study program for students in their fields of specialization. Because of that association, many of our courses are taught by highly experienced professionals in the field, who do not want full time teaching positions, who are willing to share their expertise and experiences.
