The 5-Year BAMPA is a fast-track program designed for high performing undergraduates in Urban Studies. By accelerating the completion of two degrees, students will jump start their careers as professionals in public administration. Through the BAMPA program, students may complete a BA in Urban and Regional Studies and a Master of Public Administration through the Levin College of Urban Affairs in five years, instead of the six academic years normally required of full-time students. High performing undergraduate students may apply to the 5-year program during the third year of undergraduate study and, if accepted, complete MPA coursework during the fourth year and a transition term. Students may then complete all remaining MPA coursework in two semesters of full-time graduate study.
