MPA Thesis Series

MPA Thesis Series

IIPP’s flagship Master of Public Administration (MPA) postgraduate degree connects theories of innovation with new thinking about public value creation, rewriting the public administration and economic curricula for the next generation of leaders.
The course combines IIPP’s alternative approach to policymaking with a focus on structural change and innovation, teaching the dynamic skills required for purpose-driven organisations in public, private, and civil sectors. Through the multi-disciplinary curriculum, graduates are equipped to work with uncertainty, envision large-scale change, and organise for innovation. This series highlights some of the excellent research produced by MPA students in their final thesis projects. These papers have been selected for their academic rigour, their conceptual and/or empirical originality, and because they explore key issues related to the public sector.
Taking on societal challenges and attempting to change how the state is imagined, practiced, and evaluated around the world, the MPA Thesis Series makes a valuable intellectual contribution to IIPP’s work.
