Diana Beck, Wagner Program Assistant Director
The Wagner School and the NYU School of Medicine offer a joint degree program for students to earn the Master of Public Administration and the Medical Doctor degree within five years of full-time study. The combined degree program allows students who are interested in medicine and health management, policy or finance issues to pursue an integrated and comprehensive course of study.
Applicants are required to apply to each school individually, and must meet the respective admission standards for each program. Once admitted to both schools, a student will qualify for the joint degree program.
