Is it difficult to work full-time while pursuing the MAPS degree?
The slight majority of graduates of the MAPS program have worked full-time while earning their degree. Almost all MAPS graduates have at least worked part-time during their two years of study. It requires a degree of discipline and time management to balance work, study and personal life. We estimate that for every hour of class (about eight hours each week), a student dedicates about three hours outside of class in preparation, study, research and writing. That means that your MAPS-related time may consume a total of about 30 hours each week, depending on your background and organizational skills.
