Policy Analysis

Policy Analysis is a systematic process of evaluating potential approaches to resolving public issues, informing public policy decisions, and facilitating civic engagement. Coursera's Policy Analysis catalogue teaches you the methods for identifying, researching, and evaluating public policies. You'll learn about policy design, implementation, and evaluation, along with gaining an understanding of the political and ethical considerations inherent in the policy process. You'll also explore various analytical tools and methodologies used in policy research, including cost-benefit analysis, policy modeling, and stakeholder analysis. As a policy analyst, public servant, or informed citizen, you'll be equipped with the necessary skills to analyze, critique, and influence public policies.
