The Center for Public Policy Administration and the Isenberg School of Management offer an M.P.P.A./M.B.A. dual degree program. This is a 72-credit program in which students complete the Master of Business Administration and the Master of Public Policy Administration degrees in two and an half years. The combined degree program allows students who are interested in both policy and public management issues and business administration to pursue an integrated and comprehensive course of study. Graduates would be prepared to move into careers in government and various areas of the private sector. It is recommended that students complete most of the required M.B.A. coursework in their first year. The second-year students enroll for a combination of M.B.A. and M.P.P.A. courses and complete an M.B.A. Practicum. During the summer of the second year, students complete an M.P.P.A. Internship. In the final semester, students complete two M.P.P.A. courses and two electives. Students applying to the M.P.P.A./M.B.A. dual degree program must meet the respective admission standards for each program. They submit one application and only the GMAT is required. However, that application is reviewed by both programs. Applicants must be accepted to both programs to enter the M.P.P.A./M.B.A. dual degree program.

Additional information regarding the M.P.P.A. program is available in that section of this Bulletin.
