Master of Science in Public Policy

Program Overview

  • Learn through real-life case studies, work alongside policy practitioners, and confront problems surrounding public policymaking
  • Look at the world of policy through a critical lens and apply your skills to complete a portfolio project where you’ll create policy recommendations
  • Be surrounded by experts who work with UK parliament, make regular media appearances and want to shape the future of policymaking
  • Join a community that cares about ethical policymaking, focusing on an applied approach that drives change

Conflict, climate change, cost of living. Global crises cannot be solved by one individual. To make a change, we need to take collective action – and without policy that wouldn’t be possible. The world needs good policymakers with new ideas and a fresh approach to tackle the stalemate that policy has reached.

If you want to work in the world of international, national or local policy, you need to know how it’s made. This programme unpacks policymaking and gives you the skills to research, evaluate and create policy.

You might recognise some of our teaching team from their media appearances, perhaps talking about maritime security or the Middle East. You might have picked up their books in a shop – one academic has recently published on Labour's immigration policy.
