Description
This second-year MPA/ID course is a series of more in-depth, intensive cases that help students integrate the skills they have acquired in the core curriculum and apply them to concrete policy situations. It will involve working in small teams on the diagnosis of a development issue in a specific case, the preparation of a policy brief, and oral presentations. Presentations will be conducted in class sessions involving role playing with policymakers and stakeholders.
This will occupy the same time slot as the Second-Year Policy Analysis (SYPA) seminar. This course is required for second-year MPA/ID students. It is not open to non-MPA/ID students.
