What it covers
This Unit of Study is designed to provide students with a conceptual framework through which the formulation of public policies in Australia can be analysed. Online resources and exercises are designed to provide the theoretical and conceptual background to the subject while the seminars will provide students with an opportunity to further explore these ideas and concepts and to apply them to practical policy issues.
