Is ISU’s MPA accredited?
ISU’s MPA has been in existence since 1976. Like more than half of the MPA programs in the US, though, it is not yet accredited by the National Association of Schools of Public Affairs and Administration (NASPAA). However, we are a member of NASPAA, and our curriculum follows NASPAA’s guidelines. ISU itself is accredited by a regional accreditation organization, and faculty must meet national, regional and institutional standards.
