Overview

The Public Policy offered by The University of Texas at Arlington prepares students for challenging careers in the development, implementation, and evaluation of public policies that require both the comprehension of complex urban issues and the application of tangible solutions.

The degree places heavy emphasis on empirical methods essential in the public policy analysis. The programme is organized around select public policy issues that focus on the economic/community development, environmental, or healthcare challenges in the urban milieu. The MPP is not currently accepting students but expects to resume admissions by fall 2023.
