Description:

The MA in Public Policy gives dynamic, high level training in the study of public policy and policy making at international, national and sub-state levels. You will receive a solid grounding in key theoretical approaches to the study of public policy, and significantly develop your knowledge and skills around the subject.

This course concentrates on the skills required to work across the public policy landscape, which is today increasingly characterised by change and interdependence. Therefore it also has relevance to evolving skills and knowledge if you are targeting a career in public policy research, policy advice, lobbying, public sector management or journalism, or if you are already employed in the field.
