Dual Degrees
The WVU Public Administration Department offers dual degrees in partnership with several other programs. Adding a master's degree in Public Administration to an existing program helps you learn the critical skills to enhance the impact you'll have on the world. The programs are designed by both schools, so they are cohesive and the coursework is complementary. And, you'll earn both degrees in less time than it would take to earn them separately.
