Master of
Public Administration
The Master of
Public Administration (MPA) is the professional degree for
people who want to enter public service at the management level.
The academic focus is on developing analytical, conceptual and
practical competencies that are common to Strayer University’s
Master of Business Administration degree, but emphasizing the
“public” perspective of administration. The program is designed
to meet the graduate education needs of working professionals
who wish to advance their careers, as well as business
professionals such as contractors and consultants who perform a
major part of their jobs working in a government environment.
The program's curriculum replicates content recommendations of
the National Association of Schools of Public Affairs and
Administration (NASPAA).
