Program details

Overview

The Master of Public Administration trains current and prospective public-service professionals to lead public institutions with transparency, competence, and ethical judgment. Taught through the School of Economics, Administration and Public Policy, teaching is built around principles of equality, effectiveness, and diversity, both in the curriculum itself and in how students and faculty are recruited, with an emphasis on serving communities across Qatar and the wider Arab region. Students develop critical-thinking and evidence-based decision-making skills aimed at public-sector governance, alongside the capacity to produce and share research in both Arabic and English to strengthen the broader field of public affairs and administration. On completion, graduates receive the Master of Public Administration credential and are prepared for leadership and analytical roles within government agencies, public organizations, and related institutions in the region.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Applicants need a bachelor's degree (full-time study) or equivalent, meeting a minimum grade threshold from the program's table; final-year BA students may apply if due to graduate by July 1 of the same year.

Required documents: completed application form, ID or passport, certified bachelor's degree, certified transcripts including transferred courses, two academic references, a personal statement, and an updated CV, plus proof of English proficiency through an accepted exam.
