Overview
At the Public Administration program offered by Jacksonville State University you can choose from 5 concentration areas to ensure that your career is the focus of this degree. You will be prepared in the foundational aspects of public administration and learn the skills needed to become a leader in your chosen career field.
Top Three Reasons
NASPAA Accreditation: The Network of Schools of Public Policy, Affairs and Administration (NASPAA) ensures the quality of our program. Our program meets the same accreditation standards as many larger schools, but with more student-teacher interaction. Our low student to teacher ratio ensures that you will get the highest quality courses taught by qualified area subject experts in a much more conducive environment.
Choice of concentrations: The MPA degree at JSU offers you 5 different concentration areas. This allows you to focus your career to what you want to do in the public sector. We offer concentrations in Administrative Management, Criminal Justice, Education, Emergency Management and Political Science.
Convenient Course Offerings: Whether you are wanting to take classes on campus or on-line, our program can meet your needs. No matter how you choose to take your classes, the quality of instruction meets NASPAA standards. We understand that many students have fulltime careers already and want the MPA to advance in their career. We offer night courses, hybrid courses (partially on campus and partially online) and 100% online courses.
