Public policy is an academic discipline focused on examining government policies and regulations designed to meet modern societal demands. The bachelor's degree in public policy offers an interdisciplinary curriculum that investigates both historical influences and current factors shaping policy development. Given today's diverse global landscape, CWU's public policy program requires pairing with a complementary major, typically chosen from fields like economics, environmental studies, geography, public health, political science, or sociology (students who combine public policy with geography, political science, public health, or sociology will earn a bachelor of science in public policy alongside a bachelor of arts in their chosen secondary field).
