Description

The Public Policy course is designed to meet the needs of people involved in the development and implementation of public policy at all levels of government. It is based on the proposition that public policy making is a complex political, social and bureaucratic activity that involves power, interests and compromise as well as the deployment of analysis. The process is just as important as the content. The course focuses on the understanding of agenda formation and the institutional locations of policy making, as well as the techniques and perspectives required for useful policy analysis. The Public Policy course complements other courses offered in the Schedule for the Master of Business, including Public Management and Public Law. The course will also help policy practitioners apply insights gained from other Master of Business courses
