Policy Design Analysis and Evaluation

This course trains researchers in political analysis and public policy. Thus, it contributes to delivering COM/DAPS&CO's learning outcomes in policy analysis and evaluation that will serve students in a variety of contexts including firms, public agencies, private and public interest associations, and research institutes.

This course equips students to shape and test causal claims about policy and institutional design. By the end of the course, students will acquire the key theoretical knowledge and skills to perform small- and large-scale analyses that establish the nature of the connection between relevant institutional features, behavior, and policy performance.
