Programme overview
This programme is designed for anyone involved in conceptualising or administering policies for a sustainable and substantial level of development in the world's poorer countries. It is especially suitable you are already involved in planning development strategies, currently working for non-governmental organisations in the development field or planning for a career in development.
The programme combines an intellectual and academic approach with policy-oriented and empirical studies of development. It addresses three separate, but related, facets of the development process:
analysing what development means;
studying the processes of planning (external aid, regional disparities, environmental factors, poverty and industrialisation);
examining how development policies may be delivered and administered, analysing the importance of effective political and bureaucratic structures, and evaluating the contributions of NGOs and other external bodies.
