PDI230 | Dissertation Seminar

The course has two main goals. First, it will acquaint participants with the conceptual frameworks and canonical readings that serve as analytical tools with regards to the topics of the seminar. Second, it will allow participants to display their knowledge of public policy analysis in various reading, writing, and oratorical assignments throughout the duration of this course. The aim is that the participants are exposed to literature, theories, and discourses in an area closely linked to their research/dissertation topic. Further, the course also equips participants with skills of organizing seminars including moderating in public meetings, keeping allotted time, and providing feedback constructively.
