DC223 GMGZ6996 KUMP KL PROJECT PAPER

This course exposes students to research and writing skills. Students need to study and report on a topic relevant to the field of public management. Among the areas that can be studied include policy and administration, political issues, economics and public finance, organizational management and human resources in the public sector. This course is designed for students who want to specialize in any sub-discipline of public management/administration. Students are expected to be able to work independently with minimal supervision. They also should be able to enhance drafting and writing skills, in both a critical and creative manner in the field of public management/administration. The project paper therefore encourages independent study and research skills. Students are responsible to register at the Office of School of Government and require the submission of a statement of purpose, a work plan for the semester, a schedule of meetings for the supervisor, a tentative bibliography, and any additional documents specified by the School a semester earlier before the actual registration at the graduate school.
