Business and Government Policy (BGP) Concentration

The Business and Government Policy (BGP) concentration prepares students to navigate and lead at the intersection of the public and private sectors. Grounded in rigorous economics, political science, and management training, the concentration equips future leaders to design and implement policies that harness markets for the public good. Students study regulation, corporate governance, innovation policy, public-private partnerships, and the role of business in addressing global challenges such as climate change, inequality, and technological disruption.

Through analytical coursework, real-world case studies, experiential learning, and engagement with practitioners from business, government, and civil society, BGP students graduate ready to lead in complex, cross-sector environments—whether as policymakers, social entrepreneurs, corporate leaders, or advisors aligning business incentives with societal outcomes.
