This dual-degree program, offered in partnership with UT's McCombs School of Business, combines business and public affairs education to equip students with interdisciplinary expertise. The curriculum prepares graduates for leadership roles across government agencies and private sector organizations that interface with public policy, addressing the increasing demand for professionals skilled in both policy analysis and business administration specialties.
Through this integrated approach, students can complete both MBA and MPAff degrees in just three years plus one summer session - significantly faster than the typical four years and two summer terms required to earn these degrees separately.
