Overview

If you envision your career to be one that evolves and expands across more than one path in both public or nonprofit organizations, Suffolk University’s unique MPA/MMOL Public Administration - Management and Organizational Leadership Dual Degree is ideal for you.

Features

Gain a broad set of public administration skills—an ideal foundation for public or nonprofit budgeting, collaborative public management, performance management, and more—and complement them with a focus in management and organizational behavior which provides interpersonal skills that are crucial when it comes to making a favorable impression and successfully forging connections in any organization.
