COURSE VIDEO Gain a critical and multidisciplinary perspective through the Master of Public Policy. 1:23 Gain a critical and multidisciplinary perspective on the global, national and local levels of a rapidly changing policy environment, with growing public scrutiny, shrinking resources, and new trans-boundary challenges. The Master of Public Policy is designed for those working or seeking to work in government and the public sector, and for those working in non-governmental or private sector bodies seeking a better understanding of the role of government in public policy making.
Explore the opportunities and constraints stemming from political, social, economic, civil and technological factors at both the national and global levels. Study migration, corruption, crisis management, governance and the environment. Many of the units include practical forms of assessment that draw together theoretical insights from public policy, with examples from the political world.
