MPA Social and Public Policy

Students should normally have at least a 2:2 undergraduate degree.

If you don't have experience of undergraduate study or only of a lower standard, an application may be considered with professional experience in the public policy/public service/public administration/international development field. This could be in roles in local or national government, or in non-governmental, intergovernmental or international organisations, the voluntary and charitable sector, and private sector roles which support or deliver public services or which interact with policy making. The extent of experience should be at least on an early career level, with some degree of involvement in organisational decision making or with a clear career path towards such responsibilities.

This programme is for ambitious professionals working in the public, non-profit or private sectors who aim to further develop their knowledge and skills in the field of social and public policy. The knowledge and skills that you will acquire will enable you to take on roles with higher degrees of leadership responsibility and strategic impact, and so shape and influence policy for the public good.

York MPA graduates go on to a wide range of roles, including in national and local government, international NGOs and charities, the NHS, leading consultancies and accountancy firms, universities, banks, and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office.
