Description

Designed for MPP2s conducting independent Policy Analysis Exercises (PAEs) in the field of health policy. Past topics have included an evaluation of strategies to reduce adverse drug events in hospitals and employer response to “pay or play” systems. 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. Taught jointly with CCJ-150Y, HLE-150Y,and NPS-150Y.
