Program Overview

Political decision making and the policies that arise from those decisions greatly impact the lives of the communities under their jurisdiction. If not done properly, well-intended policies can result in consequences that negatively impact generations of people living in a community. This double degree, which can be completed in just two and a half years, will give you skills you need for development, humanitarian, political and policy-related work in government organisations, in community and advocacy organisations, or work in media, law or government relations in Australia and overseas.
