thegradcafebarrista Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Would a Master in Public Administration degree be solid preparation for someone who ultimately plans on attending a doctoral program in public policy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanORaff33 Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 It is a great start (and certainly feels like the natural matriculation) but I know that many Ph.D PP programs require one year of intense economic theory and one year of calculus. I don't know if those will be built into your MPA, but if not, some school offer provisional acceptance without the econ/calc and then you can enroll up to 12 months later once you have completed those requirements. This is the same route I am planning on taking and the MPA I am looking at doesn't include those requirements. Hope this helps. thegradcafebarrista 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
