COOL CLASSES: “Public Policy Analysis”

COOL CLASSES: “Public Policy Analysis”

Taught by Associate Professor of Political Science Zachary Oberfield, this course helps students develop a deeper understanding of how public policy is made while introducing students to policy analysis—the art and science of providing problem-solving advice.

Our Cool Classes blog series highlights interesting, unusual, and unique courses that enrich the Haverford College experience.

Haverford Innovations Program

The Haverford Innovations Program (HIP) encourages and supports creative and strategic thinking around a problem, a need, a question, or simply an interest. The goal is to find new solutions and opportunities for entrepreneurial projects and paths of learning.

Sponsored by Haverford Innovations Program and Swarthmore’s Center for Innovation and Leadership, a daylong Impact Challenge led by Alexandra Wolkoff '14 from Puentes de Salud encouraged students to develop novel solutions to support Latinx immigrant communities in Philadelphia.
