Careers in Public Policy and Health Care Policy
One of the benefits of our Public Policy and Health Care Policy degrees is their flexibility. These majors can be a foundation for careers in consulting, finance, tech, education, health care administration, advocacy, politics, government, and more. You’ll also be prepared to advance your education in a graduate school, including top law schools. You’ll graduate with the analytic, research, and writing skills that will prepare you for a wide range of leadership roles.
Public policy has shown me the data we get from humans is messy and incomplete. It’s a challenge to use this data to make policy. This program brings to together economists, sociologists, data scientists, policymakers and lawyers to focus on using human-centered data.
