LSE-University of Toronto Double Degree (Master of Public Administration/Master of Global Affairs)

London School of Economics and Political Science, University of London

This two-year programme gives you the chance to earn two degrees and study at two globally renowned institutions: LSE and the University of Toronto (Munk School). Over the two years, you’ll develop key policy expertise in public affairs and draw on the academic strengths, networks, resources and career support of two world-leading universities. In the first year at LSE, you’ll develop your knowledge and skills in political science, economics, quantitative analysis and the philosophical principles underlying good public policy. The second year at the University of Toronto adds an international affairs dimension. You’ll gain an in-depth understanding of the global system and its stakeholders, innovation policy, global justice, development, markets, and security. You’ll gain practical experience through an industry project and an internship. The breadth of study and international perspectives will prepare you to tackle complex policy issues and excel in your future career. You’ll also benefit from a dedicated professional skills accelerator – giving you a head start over other graduates in the jobs market. Our graduates are well-placed to pursue high-impact roles in government, international organisations, not-for-profits, and the private sector. You’ll graduate with a Master of Public Administration (MPA) from LSE and a Master of Global Affairs (MGA) from the University of Toronto. You can also apply for a Canadian work visa post-graduation (valid for up to two years after your graduation date).
