Our city cohort programs allow you to earn your MPA degree taking classes at city facilities during work hours. Combining a convenient schedule of face-to-face classes and online learning, city employees will benefit from maximum flexibility and a program designed to combine both academic and practitioner knowledge.
Currently, there are cohorts for Fort Worth with new cohorts starting in Fall 2022 for Grand Prairie and Mansfield. For more information on the new Fall 2022 cohorts, please contact Dr. David Coursey at dcoursey@uta.edu.
