Course Description:
The Master of Public Policy (MPP) program of University of Nepal (UNepal) is designed to address the growing national demand for skilled policy analysts and public sector professionals capable of navigating complex policy challenges. As public policymaking increasingly involves multiple stakeholders beyond the state, including the private sector, civil society, academia, and development partners, the program aims to equip graduates with the analytical, interdisciplinary, and practical skills required for effective and transparent policymaking.
The program emphasizes strong analytical and quantitative training, economic reasoning, and interdisciplinary perspectives to support data-driven policy design and evaluation.
The objectives of the Master of Public Policy program include developing competencies in policy research and analysis, designing and applying data-driven solutions, understanding institutional and socio-economic dynamics, promoting ethical leadership and innovation, and strengthening written and oral communication skills for effective policy advocacy and policy brief writing. The program also aims to enhance employability by aligning policy education with labor market needs in government, development agencies, research institutions, NGOs, and the private sector.
Syllabus
The curriculum offers both breadth and depth, enabling students to understand complex public issues and develop context-appropriate policy solutions relevant to Nepal’s evolving social, economic, and political landscape. The program combines conceptual foundations with rigorous analytical training through case studies, simulations, policy seminars, discussions, and team-based projects. Students will engage with real-world policy problems through experiential learning opportunities, internships, and interaction with external experts, helping bridge the gap between theory and practice.
