• Public policy explores the intersection of policy, technology, society, and the natural world.
  • Analysis of these intersections plays a critical role in being able to address the many environmental, social, economic, and technological challenges facing society today and in the future.
  • The programs and coursework in the Department of Public Policy allow the students to combine their interests in science, technology, government, economics, and other social science fields and obtain the skills and knowledge needed to analyze and, ultimately, advocate for policy change in government or private organizations.
