How many elective hours, maximum, may a student take outside of the business school? What are the terms for receiving approval?
MPA students may fulfill up to 6 semester hours of business electives with upper-division undergraduate or graduate-level courses taken outside of the business school (on the UT campus), with approval. In the request for approval, students will be expected to explain how the proposed outside elective ties in with their career objectives and include a copy of the syllabus. Examples might include foreign language, communication, economics, or public policy courses. Request forms are available in the MPA Program Office or online.
