The Specialized Honours BA Program in Public Policy and Administration provides students with a broad and liberal education while focusing on the skills required for public sector employment. In addition, many graduates of the program have gone on to graduate school or law school, or have found private sector employment in areas dealing with government. The program consists of courses such as public law, economics, public administration and quantitative methods in policy analysis (statistics and research design). As the Public Policy and Administration Program has many specific course requirements, students are strongly advised to plan their course of study in advance.
