Apprendimento e esperienza
The first semester covers research design, democracy, public opinion and policy analysis. Later study offers choices such as migration, welfare states and multilevel governance, subject to the year’s availability. A 12-credit dissertation lets you bring the methods together around a political question.
Who it may suit
It may suit you if you want to examine public decisions, institutions or political behaviour in depth. The research training can support further academic study and interests in policy analysis, public administration or civil-society organisations.
