DescriptionUnderstand the need for effective, responsive policies in government, business or non-profit sectors and learn how to critique, write and implement policy. Gain practical experience during a semester work term in the world of policy-making.

The honours degree option of the Bachelor of Arts in Policy Studies program requires students to complete a thesis with the supervision of a faculty supervisor/co-supervisors. The principal requirement of the honours degree is to write a 40-60 page paper (not counting notes, bibliography and appendices) that showcases the qualitative and/or quantitative skills that a student has acquired as an undergraduate at Mount Royal University, and is of sufficient quality and interest to present to an employer or a graduate school. The thesis should reflect some independent research in the policy field that is genuinely the student's own work.
