The dual Executive Master in Public Administration-Executive Master of International Relations degree allows one to focus on executive-level public administration and international relations disciplines through an abbreviated course of study. Dual degree students earn the degrees concurrently, with a 30-credit primary of study and a 21-credit supplemental course of study. Students choose the primary (i.e. 30-credit) degree focus and then pursue the credit and program requirements for the dual degree. Students must meet requirements of both programs to complete the dual Executive Master in Public Administration-Executive Master of International Relations degree. CONCURRENT DEGREE PROGRAMS International relations students may complete the MAIR or EMIR and another graduate degree on a concurrent basis. In cases where two or more distinct graduate degrees are awarded by Syracuse, students must complete 80% of the minimum number of credit hours normally required for each of the separate degrees. To pursue the MAIR/EMIR and another degree concurrently, a student should expect to be in residence an additional one to two academic semesters. All concurrent degree international relations students must complete a minimum of 34 credits in international relations; concurrent degree executive international relations students will complete a minimum of 24 credits in international relations. In recent years, students have completed concurrent graduate degrees in Finance, Information Management, Political Science, Geography, History, and Management. Additionally, current graduate students enrolled in the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry may apply to obtain the MAIR concurrently. SUNY ESF students must seek approval from ESF prior to application to the Maxwell School. CONCURRENT DEGREE PROGRAM ADMISSIONS Admission to the MAIR requires an application even if a student is already matriculated in another Syracuse University graduate program. To be complete, the application must be current and accompanied by transcripts for all undergraduate and graduate work, graduate test scores (MAIR only), and letters of recommendation from Syracuse University faculty including approval from the other program's advisor. Instructions on how to apply internally to obtain a concurrent degree with the Department of Public Administration and International Affairs are available from the Department Office, 215 Eggers Hall. The application deadline is February 1. CERTIFICATE OF ADVANCED STUDY OPTIONS
