Public Policy and Human Development

How can public policy promote innovation-based growth? What is lacking in the current social protection policy in your country and how can it be improved? What are the key factors that governments should take into account when creating their migration policy? Develop the skills to answer these questions in a professional capacity with our master's programme in Public Policy and Human Development, offered in collaboration with United Nations University (UNU-MERIT). This one-year programme emphasises the connection between public policy and the effectiveness and efficiency of governance. You'll be equipped with a variety of quantitative and qualitative skills, tools and knowledge which will enable you to work in policy-related fields in public, private and non-profit organisations the world over.
