Overview

The Public Policy and Business Administration (Dual Degree) course of Rutgers University gives you the skills you need to tackle complex public policy problems. You will develop and refine your analytic and quantitative skills, become grounded in the functions of markets, and gain a thorough understanding of the political institutions and processes through which public policies are formulated and implemented.

Key facts

The student needs a total of 60 credits for the MBA and 48 for the MPP. The student will therefore need to take 48 credits with Rutgers Business School and 36 with Edward J.
