What is a Presidio Dual MBA/MPA in Sustainable Solutions degree?

Redirecting social and economic systems to be more equitable, inclusive, and sustainable presents enormous opportunities and challenges that are too big for the private or public sector alone. The Presidio Dual MBA/MPA Degree in Sustainable Solutions at the University of Redlands offers a unique education that incorporates sustainability and equity into every course. Our graduates are truly prepared to tackle the problems impacting our world. We provide an affordable, flexible, and supportive program designed to support working professionals looking to grow their careers and meet societies’ most pressing needs.

Why this program?

The Presidio MBA/MPA Dual Degree in Sustainable Solutions offers significant breadth and depth to your study of the public and private sectors by building your education around the most critical issues in the modern world. The program’s curriculum builds on the need for multi-sector problem-solving by engaging crisis points as an opportunity to design and impact interventions that can help shift and reimagine our systems to become more effective, equitable, and sustainable. Throughout your coursework, we will challenge you to apply a systems-thinking lens to discover how you might build and maintain a lasting, intentional social and environmental impact.

In the Presidio Dual Degree in Sustainable Solutions program*, students will earn two master’s degrees: an MBA in Sustainable Solutions and an MPA in Social Justice and Sustainability.

Our Dual Degree in Sustainable Solutions is a 73-credit program with 19 required courses and a student residency that takes place five times per semester. Students have the flexibility to travel to the San Francisco Bay Area to participate in-person, or, may opt to participate remotely.

In the first semester, all students will participate in a one-unit course, Professional Skills for a Career with Purpose, designed to support your career goals and prepare you to make the most of your Presidio education. In your final semester, you will complete a Capstone course designed to draw on and integrate material from both degree programs into a culminating final project. The Dual Degree in Sustainable Solutions can be completed in two and a half years full-time or four and a half years if enrolled part-time.

Built on the same foundation as Presidio’s MBA in Sustainable Solutions and MPA in Social Justice and Sustainability, the Dual Degree in Sustainable Solutions maintains our commitment to a systems-thinking approach that emphasizes broad stakeholder engagement to promote progress and enable transformative change. In this program, we equip students to pursue roles where they can forge connections between the public and private sectors and work to align commercial and policy goals with sustainable outcomes.
