CAPPA's accelerated online public administration master's program (MPA) has been named one of the best in the country for both quality and value by Great Value Colleges. The MPA program is ranked No. 20 in the nation overall and No. 1 in the top 50 for lowest tuition. 

"The accelerated online MPA curriculum emphasizes the metropolitan environment and the challenges of public administrators who work in urban areas," according to Great Value Colleges. Students will learn about current management theories and the political, economic, and social factors that shape today's urban climate.

The online MPA is one of many CAPPA programs designed to meet industry needs, especially in Texas. Urban and rural communities continue to expand and demand professionals with the skills and expertise to manage public resources effectively.

Tuition, student-to-faculty ratio, return on investment, versatility in program delivery, online student support network, concentrations/specializations offered, and accreditation are all rating and ranking methodology considered by Great Value Colleges.
