WHAT PGP STUDENTS SAYThe program has helped me get a better domain knowledge and understand the policyaspect of my work in the political space. The faculty is exceptionally good, they inculcatebetter reasoning ability to overcome personal biases. The program is flexible and has theoption to personalise for working professionals like me. PGP has added great value to thework I do with politics and the public policy space, and has empowered me to be a betterchange maker!

Harshitha VenkateshProject Lead, Bangalore Political Action Committee (B.PAC)

The course structure enabled me to gain a nuanced understanding of the intersectionbetween Geo-Politics and Strategy, Political Structures/Philosophies and DeliverySystems, Economics, Technology and Public Finances. It allowed me to do this whileworking and I eventually managed to switch into Public Policy as my main area of work. Aswith any other move in life, there are risks and trade-off’s and they might be different foreach individual but for people looking to make this switch and seeking a way to trainthemselves and build the knowledge and discipline, I would recommend joining the PGPcourse.
