UNC MPA General Information Session

MPA Information Sessions are online admissions events for prospective students to learn more about our MPA program at UNC.  Topics we cover usually include the MPA vs. other degrees, our concentration areas, career and program outcomes, and which format (online or oncampus) is the best fit for you.  

Information sesssions are held once per month, and usually include our Director of Admissions, Cara Robinson and a current student or alumni member.

Special guests this month include UNC MPA alum Joe Moore and current student Patrick Jones as we discuss our broad-based leadership degree and how it can impact your work and advance your career. Special attention will be paid to discussing what the MPA is and who it’s for, our career and program outcomes, and how this degree can help you start, advance, or change in your career.
