MPPA Curriculum
Course Sequencing (in pdf)

The following tables illustrate the recommended PPA course sequencing for MPPA graduate students. These tables are to be used as reference only and are not a substitute for academic advising with a faculty member.
Please note that scheduling anomalies, such as summer classes, are not reflected here. Other scheduling permutations worked out with an advisor or the chair are acceptable. With the exception of PPA 500, all of our core courses are offered once a year. Students must speak to a faculty advisor about internships.
