History

Catholic University's Metropolitan School of Professional Studies (MSPS) was established as University College in 1979 by the Board of Trustees to extend the educational resources and programs of the university to adult students wanting to pursue academic and professional credentials. MSPS has a long history of serving adults with programs that integrate a values-based, liberal arts foundation with majors that are application-oriented and focused on professional career tracks. The school offers master's degrees, bachelor's degrees, associate's degrees, and certificates in Washington, and in 2021 began offering a bachelor’s degree in management in Tucson, Ariz.
