The Master of Public Administration program is designed to provide students with a comprehensive and holistic understanding of what is needed to be an effective public service leader. Students will explore the most critical areas of public administration, including planning, financial budgeting, political analysis, and personnel administration, as well as contemporary issues in ethics, digital governance, NGOs, and global governance.

Jonathan West, Program Director of the Master of Public Administration (MPA), shares detailed information about the components of our online degree program as well as the competitive advantage students will acquire once they earn their Master of Public Administration from the University of Miami. The program will expose students to the essential components of public service professionalism to help them meet the challenges of the years ahead.

"When the door opens, you need to make sure you have the credentials you need to run through it. I think this program is perfect for public service professionals who want to make it a profession and not just a job."
