Policymaking plays a key role in the management and change of the economy and society. From policy conceptualization, implementation and management to evaluation and research, there are few professional areas where you can impact society as much as when you are helping to shape public policy.

The Master of Public Policy and Governance provides specialist studies in public policy and management, public administration and public governance of services at local, national and international levels. This degree applies a social science perspective to questions of policy and management in modern organisations. The courses are taught by policymakers or policy researchers who bring their real-life experience to the classroom, revealing the relationship between theory, research and everyday practice.
