A Master of Public Administration or MPA is a professional Master’s degree program in which students develop the analytic and professional skills to serve in management roles in the public and non-profit sectors. Students in MPA programs typically learn the skills of policy analysis, program evaluation, public and non-profit budgeting, human resources management, strategic planning and management and leveraging technology for organizational advancement. Delaware State University’s MPA program is no exception. What makes Delaware State University’s MPA unique is our focus on civic engagement and community empowerment. While our students develop the skills requisite for a Master of Public Administration, they will also develop their capacities for working alongside communities to empower individuals and communities as agents for their own development. The MPA at Delaware State University allows students to advance their own careers while also advancing community interests. To this end, students will learn and practice the skills necessary to assess community contexts, engage with community members, identify and build leadership capacities among others, and serve as agents of community change.
