Public Policy Minor

The Public Policy minor is designed to meet the needs of  students desiring a strong background in the various dimensions of governmental policy-making, particularly those who plan a career in public or quasi-public sector policy analysis, management, and evaluation. Perhaps more significantly, graduates with a public policy emphasis are well prepared to enter graduate schools which offer further study in the field and law schools. Students will receive, in a series of core courses, training in research methodology, statistics with computer applications, policy process and political economy.
