Courses are designed with the working professional in mind. Accessible 24/7, the 100% online courses are easy to navigate from anywhere, at any time. Program can be completed in 16-months, or busy professionals can choose the part-time option which takes 2-years.
Utah residents and non-residents pay the same affordable tuition rate for the 36-credit program. Graduates with a Master of Public Administration degree are expected to earn up to 20% more per year than with a bachelor's degree alone, making for an excellent return on investment.
Smaller class sizes facilitate networking between students and instructors to build long-lasting relationships and career connections, and allow for more individualized learning. Students can expect class sizes of 20 or fewer.
Students can maximize their educational investment by earning a graduate certificate in Healthcare Administration, Emergency Management/Homeland Security, or Higher Education Leadership along with the MPA degree. Students can use their MPA elective options to take courses within these areas, allowing them to earn an extra credential without having to take extra classes. Contact us for more details.
