CU Denver’s Bachelor of Arts in Public Administration (BAPA) program empowers students to create meaningful change in their communities. Whether advocating for social justice, managing nonprofit organizations, or working in government, graduates are equipped to lead with purpose. 

“Public administration is about serving the public good,” says Robyn Mobbs, PhD, Assistant Teaching Professor and Program Director. Students completing the program will learn to manage public resources ethically and effectively, solve complex societal challenges, and lead organizations across sectors. 

Designed for learners at any stage of life, the BAPA program is fully online and flexible, with small class sizes that foster connection and diverse perspectives. Students benefit from faculty who also teach in CU Denver’s nationally ranked Master of Public Administration program and students can earn specialized certificates in areas like Strategic and Collaborative Management, Leadership, Equity, Advocacy, and Public and Nonprofit Management. 

A recent curriculum redesign ensures students graduate with practical skills in policy analysis, communication, and ethical decision-making—ready to make a difference for the greater good.
