Help shape future policy with a Public Policy Management degree

Join the only public policy management undergraduate course in Western Australia and become an effective leader in the public or private sector.

Murdoch's Public Policy and Management degree will provide you with the conceptual framework and skills you need to catapult yourself to the forefront of decision-making.

You could also find yourself studying for a semester at the Department of Public and Social Administration at the City University of Hong Kong on a special scholarship offered by the City University of Hong Kong. Or perhaps you'll become the recipient of the Public Policy Management (PPM) award offered by the Institute of Public Administration Australia for the most outstanding student.
