Overview

Confront the grand challenges of the 21st century across public, private and civic sectors by studying core modules in economics, politics, public administration, and innovative design, and either completing a thesis or an industry placement with partner organisations.

This Innovation, Public Policy and Public Value programme from UCL is multidisciplinary in its approach to teaching and learning. It provides you with a solid grounding in economics, politics, public administration, innovation and design, united by a focus on challenging economic orthodoxies and exploring the new thinking and skills governments need to drive transformative change.

Employability

Many public sector bodies, policy think tanks, NGOs and large private organisations are seeking professionals who can justify, evaluate and implement public policy in new and effective ways. The Innovation, Public Policy and Public Value MPA is designed to meet this growing demand.

Graduates are policy makers, economists, researchers, designers – and leaders. They work at all levels of government, in the UK and internationally, as well as in global institutions and mission-led private sector organisations.
