MPP SAMPLE COURSE SCHEDULE
The following sample MPP course schedule is based on completing course work in four semesters over a two year time period. This is only a sample as some students may complete courses over three or four years. Since MPP courses are taken from different departments, course offerings may vary. For example, some courses are offered once a year and others may be offered every other year depending on department schedules and student demand.
