Executive Master of Public Administration

Page contents > Year 1 and 2 at LSE

20 month programme. Students must take courses to the value of 8 half units as set out below. Alternative exit points are available to students who are not able to complete the degree. An LSE Diploma is available on the completion of six courses and an LSE Certificate on the completion of four courses.

To be eligible to progress into the second year, students should attain at least a Pass grade in each of the first year papers. If a single paper is failed, the student may proceed to the second year and resit the failed paper along with the second year papers. The Sub-Board of Examiners may, at its discretion, consider an application to progress to the second year of the degree from a student who has fallen marginally short of this requirement.
