MPA or MSA - Public Administration?

Which one of these two sound better...just thinking into retirement

UWF - The Master of Science in Administration in Public Administration
or
American Military University - MPA in Health Policy

I have a pick but I was wondering if anyone has experience with UWF.

 

You are working like crazy on you dissertation and already thinking about another degree? Who are you, Superman?

I like the sound of the MSA, myself.

 

I'm imagining that those two degrees would result in two very different careers. Could that be true?

 

I think the better known MPA is better than the lesser known MSA, however I suspect UWF would outrank AMU at this time. The degree content is really what matters in the end.

Since you have a wide variety of degrees already why not branch out and take the MSQA offered by CSUDH - quality assurance is critical in areas such as manufacturing, service, health, and govt.

 

Not really, they would complement what I already.

 

I just gave a presentation to a company board of directors - During a preview the company CEO suggested I use the word 'synergy' insteard of 'complement.' LOL

 

Thanks for the suggestion. At this point anything I consider must fall in line with what I have experience in. Any future classes must have an adjunct ROI attached (if I want to do something for fun, I will just read a book). Possibily name recognition or "hi need" areas. BUT I love the look of the MSQA program. This is exactly what could help me in my real-world job.

The Service and Health Care program looks great...more to think about.

 

I have been using "harmonize" lately. It just sounds slick!
