Developing Future Leaders in Policy and Governance

I teach Introduction to the Analysis of Public Policy (PST 101), which is a large (100-180 students per semester) experiential learning course focused on policy, problem solving and practical skills. I also work with and train a group of undergraduate courses assistants who are crucial for implement the course.

I also teach a Masters in Public Administration course called Policy Design and Implementation.
