Interested in learning and writing about public policy while earning 2 units towards the Public Policy minor?

Policy Review at Berkeley is a student-led, peer-reviewed, interdisciplinary journal that is designed for students of all academic disciplines to reflect on and write about the policy implications of their fields of interest. The mission of the journal is to make policy easily accessible, understandable, and applicable for undergraduates from varying academic disciplines and personal backgrounds. The Policy Review at Berkeley DeCal course is designed to help students build interviewing, academic writing, policy-making and policy analysis skills through extensive writing, fieldwork, and simulations. Students in this DeCal will receive 2 units towards the Public Policy minor.

This semester’s theme is “In the Aftermath of a Crisis" We’ll be focusing on policies that are enacted in the wake of unexpected circumstances and explore strategies that may make such policies more effective.
