Program Description
Situated in the Brooks School of Public Policy, the Ph.D. Program in Public Policy trains the next generation of scholars and professionals to address pressing national and international public policy issues.
Building upon the academic strengths of the Brooks School, the core areas of focus in the Ph.D. program include data science and technology policy; education policy; environmental and sustainability policy; demography and family policy; global security; health policy; inequality and social policy; the politics and economics of development; race, racism, and public policy; and regulatory policy.
Our program combines a focus on substantive policy areas with advanced training in a disciplinary area, empirical methods, and multiple disciplinary approaches. Our multi-disciplinary faculty and students also work closely with the Ph.D. programs in Economics, Sociology, Government, and other graduate fields at Cornell.
Across these specializations, Public Policy Ph.D. students graduate with the skills to shape and evaluate policy in a range of settings, from faculty positions in academic institutions to leadership roles in the public and private sectors

Students who specialize in this area must demonstrate knowledge of both the practical concerns that drive policy analysts to attempt to understand particular social problems (and solutions), as well as the research approaches that are typically adopted by policy analysts to evaluate or demonstrate the relevance of particular social factors in understanding policy related problems.
