UIU is a great university for public administration studies.  The curriculum is up to par and the cost is wonderful in comparison to other universities.  I'm really glad I chose this school.  You won't be sorry.

I just completed the MPA in homeland security program with UIU online. My undergrad degree is from University of Phoenix online and UIU's courses and caliber of instructors are far superior to what UoP offers in every way. Out of the entire program I only had one instructor that I thought was a "mess". The rest of the instructors I had were teaching at brick and mortar schools somewhere else, had contributed significantly to the field of public administration, and were involved in research of their own. The courses are challenging, have moderate to heavy work loads, and were graded "tough yet fair". I had classmates not pass classes, and while I hate to see an individual fail it was reassuring to know this school and its instructors value their quality of instruction and protect the credibility and integrity of the program. I had two particularly outstanding instructors. Dr. Erakovich and Dr. Mosser  actually changed my life by pushing me to think in new ways. Dr. Erakovich teaches extreme version critical thinking in his public policy class, and Dr. Mosser helped me see how literal and virtual networks could be used to frame problems and find solutions in unique applications such as critical infrastructure protection and terrorism. Both of these skills have been put to the test in my personal and professional life with great results. I am currently employed in the public administration field and now, not only do I have a better understanding of how and why certain things happen, I have the confidence to observe, identify problems, perform research, analyze results, and propose meaningful solutions to problems. If I could suggest any improvement, it would be that UIU should seek professional accreditation so that employers and other schools can easily recognize the quality education that UIU offers its graduate students.
