Advanced Policy Analysis

Catalog description

This graduate course explores the relationships among public policy development and implementation, urban sustainability, and private for-profit and not-for-profit interests. We will explore different elements of urban sustainability and how private and public interest collide and/or collude in advancing and/or impeding policies that drive sustainable practices. We will pay particular attention to government administrative entities and how policies are realized through those bureaucracies. We will then explore case studies where public investment spurred private investment successfully. And finally we will explore current public policies and private interests in the greater Cincinnati region.
