Welcome!
In the 1997-1998 academic year, DePaul University introduced an
undergraduate major in Public Policy Studies. The program's curriculum
introduces students to key public policy concerns in the areas of
Environmental policy and Urban policy, identifies fundamental
conceptual tools in the development and analysis of public policies,
and provides a foundation in basic policy theory and research methods.
Students who
major in
Public Policy Studies have a variety of career options. Traditionally,
this has been a field leading to work in governmental settings, but in
recent years the proliferation of community-based organizations and
other non-profit groups have opened up new occupational opportunities
for students with training in specific public policy fields or public
policy analysis.
Public
Policy is also a
useful undergraduate major for students intending to pursue graduate
training in the social sciences, law, business, as well as various
specialized policy areas.
For more
information
about the program, please contact Dr. Kelly Tzoumis, Chairperson of Public
Policy Studies via email (KellyTzoumis@ameritech.net)
or by calling the
Public Policy Studies office at 773-325-7715.
