| Public policy looks at
the nature of public problems and how we attempt to address those problems
through government action.
The HASS Minor in Public Policy
is designed for science and engineering students who would like to
understand better the many ways that their field of technical expertise
may influence, and be influenced by, federal, state, and local
policies.
The HASS Minor in Public Policy follows a
six course sequence that is divided into three tiers (see the requirements
page).
-
The
first tier introduces the fundamental concepts and ideas that guide
how we think about public policy and government action.
-
The
second tier explores methods of policy analysis.
-
The third
tier offers an in-depth exploration of a specific policy field.
Students
interested in the Public Policy Minor should visit the HASS
MINOR website for information on instructions and deadlines for
applying for a HASS Minor.
