What will I learn?

UIC School of Law and the Department of Public Administration of the College of Urban Planning and Public Affairs (CUPPA) offer joint programs leading to the Juris Doctor (JD)/Master of Public Policy (MPP) degree.

The Department of Public Policy, Management, and Analytics offers course work leading to the Master of Public Policy (MPP). The program prepares students to analyze and evaluate information in order to address complex policy issues.

The scholarly focus of our nationally and internationally recognized faculty is twentieth-century Slavic studies, making our Department an ideal place to pursue one’s interest in Polish and Russian modern, post-modern and contemporary literature and culture.

Students must complete the requirements for both the JD (90 hours) and the MPP (54 hours), with 28 hours being shared between the two degrees, for a total of at least 116 hours.
