Analyzing the Systems and Organizations Driving Government Policies
Through my OS pathway, I hope to understand what systems and organizations drive government polices. When governments create and enforce policies the effects are complex and felt by many. I not only want to study the extent of those effects, I also want to figure out the cause. What lead to the decisions and by knowing those causes is it possible use them to influence future policy decisions which will improve society? I hope that by understanding how certain polices come to be, we can then shape these polices to better serve the people. I intend to focus much of my coursework on Economics, Political Science, and course offered only thorough the OS department. I have also noticed a few courses suggested through the OS curriculum, like those in the Communications department, that seem like it will be helpful to me in developing some of the critical skills I will need for my future endeavors.
