Overview
Details
The Summer School aims to provide the opportunity for PhD. students and early career researchers to advance their knowledge of Public Policy theories, concepts, and methodologies. Students will participate in workshops/case studies where they will be able to discuss their research projects and receive feedback from both their peers and acclaimed scholars of public policy.
The general program will be structured between:
- Lectures on specific public policy approaches, concepts, and theories ;
- Courses on a particular issue given by an International scholar, according to students' preferences ;
- Afternoon workshop sessions enabling them to present their work to the group, and have their topic discussed by their peers and the professors.
The courses will be taught by 3 internationally renowned policy scholars: Patrick Hassenteufel (Paris-Saclay University, France), Mireille Manga Edimo (University of Yaoundé II), and Nikolaos Zahariadis (Rhodes College, Memphis, USA).
