MPP PROGAM:

Our masters degree in public policy is a two-year full-time professional graduate degree program featuring core instruction on a small-group, cohort-based model.

Students take elective courses within two fields of specialization, domestic and global, each of which cuts across policy sectors. In each stream, students choose electives in a variety of policy sectors, including cities, education, the environment, and health.

Mission
The School of Public Policy and Governance (SPPG) is a hub for excellence in teaching, research, and public policy engagement.

In the past ten years SPPG has become Canada's academic voice in the world on public policy issues, with leading practitioners and scholars working with talented students in the country’s top professional Master of Public Policy program.

The School’s graduates are the first choice for employers, with a 90% placement rate for students within one year of graduating. SPPG’s flagship Master program has a proven track record of success, powered by hundreds of alumni employing the School’s evidence-based approach across think tanks, government, not-for-profit, and private sector organizations, well-placed as Canada’s next generation of policy makers and influencers.

The professional graduate degree program is highly coveted, receiving yearly over 600 competitive applications for just 80 Master of Public Policy spaces. Seasoned policy practitioners, fellows, and faculty teach and mentor students through a program that excels at developing the core competencies in high demand across the Canadian public sector.

SPPG has an incredibly vibrant student community leading initiatives that range from not-for-profit consulting for NGOs; to student managed policy research publishing and broadcasting; and an annual policy conference jointly managed by students between the University of Toronto and the University of Michigan.

The School bridges the policy sector with powerful research and data being generated by policy experts. SPPG invites the public to participate in widely popular public policy talks, including the annual Cadario Lecture and the David Peterson Leadership Lecture. Convening events for experts across industry - such as the SPPG Policy Institute - and offering leading-edge Executive Education programming for industry leaders, the School is a central site for the advancement of public policy discourse.

The School of Public Policy Governance is also home to the thought leading Mowat Centre for Policy Innovation - an independent, non-partisan public policy think tank - that undertakes collaborative applied policy research and proposes innovative research-driven recommendations on Canada’s pressing national issues.
