公共事务与政策管理学士

公共政策的影响在我们的社会中无处不在。它影响我们呼吸的空气和我们饮用的水的质量。它影响繁荣和贫困程度
Public policies affect every aspect of our lives. The decisions governments make (or do not make) affect the speed and extent of climate change and our ability to adapt to it. They affect society’s level of prosperity and degree of inequality. They influence our access to housing, education and medical care. Public policies also influence Canada’s role in the world and our response to global challenges. As a student in the Bachelor of Public Affairs and Policy Management program (BPAPM) program, you will learn about how, and why, governments make public policies. You will develop the knowledge of government institutions and the skills in policy analysis to contribute to the policy-making process.<br><br>The BPAPM develops your knowledge and skills through a curriculum that combines interdisciplinary study of civic institutions and processes with rigorous study of public policy. A selection of courses in political science, economics, law, communications and history is combined with public policy courses. Together, these courses will provide you with a comprehensive understanding of what government, civil and business organizations do, why they do it and how they might do it better.
