The Master of Public Policy (MPP) is designed for early to mid-career professionals who want to enhance their knowledge and analytical skills to effectively address complex public policy challenges, and advance their career in any policy-relevant sector.

The intensive 9-month programme enables students to take a short career break to join an experienced global cohort, gain new perspectives and develop an understanding of the “craft of government”. This integrates theory and analysis, politics, and implementation of policy.

This offers tools and knowhow to understand and address the world’s most pressing public policy challenges.

Whether moving into public, private, international, or non-profit roles, our graduates will take with them enhanced knowledge, expanded thinking and elevated skills to be able to make formidable contributions to public policy and advance in the next stage in their career.
