The Master of Public Policy (MPP) of the Willy Brandt School of Public Policy at the University of Erfurt trains future decision makers with the analytical tools and practical skills to advance innovative and sustainable policy decisions. A professional program, the two-year interdisciplinary and practice-oriented MPP is designed for young professionals pursuing a career in public service, government agencies, international organizations and the non-profit sector. Conscious of the Western bias in policy education, the program puts specific emphasis on the agency of the Global South by training for critical and context-specific policy analysis. Drawing on political science, economics, statistics, public administration, ethics and law, the MPP curriculum provides the skills for advancing lasting solutions. The integrated practice spine comprises a mandatory internship and the team-based capstone project, a semester-long pro bono consultancy with an external policy cli-ent.
