Revised 2007-2009 Schedule

Effective Fall of 2007, the MPA program will be offered on a 2-year schedule, rather than the traditional three-year program. Students will be able to take two courses each term, including the 15-week summer term, and thus be able to complete 6 courses in 12 months. The course schedule below will be repeated every two years, so that the courses offered in Fall 2007 will again be offered in Fall 2009.

As the program continues to grow, we may add additional sections of courses, so check back each term for any modifications to this schedule.

Any questions? Call Brian Posler at 465-7020.

(Schedule is preliminary and is subject to change.)
