THREE WAYS TO EARN AN MPA DEGREE

MPA Bridge
Our new MPA Bridge program is a perfect fit for current UT undergraduates (both McCombs and non-McCombs students) who would like to pursue an MPA degree along with their non-accounting bachelor's degree. Get a head start on MPA courses during your senior year. -
Integrated MPA
The integrated MPA program is designed for current Texas McCombs undergraduates who are interested in earning a BBA degree in accounting and an MPA degree. You will save both time and money by taking several graduate level courses at undergraduate tuition rates.
