Degree Offered
Ph.D.-Political Studies
Format: Campus
Program Description:
The discrepancy between institutional and policy designs and their outcomes is a major contemporary political issue at national and international level. Moving from design to implementation involves the emergence of unforeseen and occasionally perverse effects, of state and market failures, of value systems uncertainty and of conflicts at the borders of public and private. The training of highly-skilled professionals who acquire appropriate planning and implementation expertise is one way advanced democracies try to address these issues. The aims of the doctoral program are: to train professionals who can undertake research within academic institutions and research centres as well as provide consultancy for political, economic, public or private organizations in both national and international spheres; to offer the most up-to-date knowledge and methods in the field of political science and political philosophy required to analyse complex institutions and organisational processes and to understand and address the ethical dilemmas involved.
