公共政策学

Why do some issues grab the attention of policy-makers and others do
not? How do governments decide which problems to focus on? Why do bad
ideas become policy and good ideas languish for years? Why do
governments respond differently to global policy challenges like the
COVID-19 pandemic? Governments are facing more complex demands every
day. If you want to make a difference in the world, you need to
understand the limits and possibilities of how policies are developed,
implemented, and evaluated.This programme will give you an advanced understanding of the major
theories and concepts of governance, public management, and public
policy. You will work with world leading experts on transnational policy
making and gain a practice focused understanding of why and how ideas
are turned into public policy; whose interests make the biggest impact
and how; and why some policies are more difficult than others to
implement.
