Description

Designed for MPP2s conducting independent Policy Analysis Exercises (PAEs) in the field of criminal justice. Past topics have included studies of racial disparities in drug arrests and police response to domestic violence. Large group meetings will focus on choosing a client, choosing a topic, and frameworks for policy analysis. Once clients have been chosen (October), we will break into smaller groups where students will meet regularly with an advisor and other students conducting PAEs on similar topics. Students are required to write a PAE, give a presentation of their research, and provide intellectual support to others in the course.

Open to MPP2 students only. Large group sessions will be held jointly with HCP-150Y, HLE-150Y, and NPS-150Y.
