About
When it comes to standing out in a crowded marketplace, a dual degree can have a big impact. In less time than it takes to pursue each degree individually, you can graduate with two degrees.
The J.D./M.P.A. dual degree comprises the McKinney J.D., complete with the theoretical knowledge, practical skills, and hands-on experience that all of our graduates receive, and an M.P.A. from the IU O'Neill School of Public and Environmental Affairs.
This program prepares you to understand and work within the legal and managerial frameworks of public service, nonprofit, and quasi-governmental institutions. In the final year of the program, you'll complete a research paper on a topic in both areas of study that will be supervised by faculty advisors from both schools.
Students wishing to pursue a dual degree must submit the Dual Degree Intent Form.
