Study Details: MPA 16 months part-time (APEL fast-track)
This course is an international master’s programme for public, private and voluntary sector professionals aiming to deepen their knowledge, become more effective in their work and further their career.
Rather than being restricted to one academic discipline, an MPA draws on a range of different disciplines and fields in order to help equip professionals with a broader set of knowledge and skills relevant to their careers.
All applications will be evaluated individually with admissions decisions made by CTPSR. Admission decisions are based on the entry criteria elaborated below and an evaluation of the required application documents. Ordinarily, the minimum entry criteria for the MPA Global Diversity Governance are as follows:
Applicants should hold a 2:2 or above degree (or equivalent international grade/qualification), from a recognised university, preferably in a social science subject (e.g. Sociology, Psychology, Security Studies, International Relations, Politics, Peace and Conflict Studies, Development Studies, etc.).
Accreditation of Prior Experiential Learning
The course only accepts students through the APEL route. To be eligible for APEL applicants must have a minimum of five years evidenced working experience in a relevant field to Global Diversity Governance and be operating in a relevant role at the level of mid-management or above at the time of application, or have operated within a relevant role at the level of mid-management or above within 12 months of the time of application.

Whilst also gaining a formal, accredited postgraduate qualification upon successful completion1, the MPA offers the opportunity to broaden your professional networks and study alongside people working on similar issues around the world.
The MPA is ideally suited for professionals looking to progress their careers in senior management where an ability to work effectively with the complexity of diverse communities is of paramount importance. The MPA equips you with the skills and knowledge usually needed to take up roles within a broad range of organisations. These could include roles in international non-governmental organisations, national and local government agencies, supranational government organisations like the United Nations, regional communities such as the European Union or the Economic Community of West African States, faith-based organisations, local and national charities and academia – a number of our Centre’s alumni have gone on to join our team as PhD candidates.
