公共政策硕士/城市与环境规划硕士

The University of Virginia School of Architecture and the Frank Batten School of Leadership and Public Policy offer a dual degree program which leads to the completion of the MUEP and MPP degrees in three years instead of the four years that would be required if each degree were pursued independently. The program is administered by faculty advisors from the School of Architecture and Batten School. The program takes three years to complete. In brief, it consists of the complete first year program of each school followed by one year of courses taken from the curricula of the two schools and, in appropriate cases, from other graduate offerings at the University. A student who has been admitted to the program will ordinarily be allowed to elect whether to start in the Batten School or in the School of Architecture. The student will then spend the second year in the program as a regular first year student in the other school. Up to 20 credits of MPP courses can apply to the MUEP and up to 12 credits of MUEP courses can count toward the MPP.
