Graduate School of Public Policy

On November 23, 2016 the Graduate School of Public Policy hosted its Open House Day with participation of its strategic partner institution – the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy. Comparing to previous similar events, this year’s Open House Day had a larger attendance. Around 80 interested candidates attended the event to meet GSPP and LKYSPP faculty, talk to students and learn more about GSPP academic programs and enrollment requirements. The event began with opening speech by GSPP Dean Hui Weng Tat, who warmly welcomed all the participants and introduced the speakers. LKYSPP Vice Dean Eduardo Araral spoke on the successful partnership between two institutions. GSPP Vice Dean Riccardo Pelizzo presented information on the 2 master degree programs – MPP and MPA, followed by presentation by LKYSPP Associate Dean Donald Low on the Singapore component of MPP/MPA programs.

Finally, GSPP professor Colin Knox presented information about the PhD program (pending) which is planned to be launched in the beginning of 2017. After all presentations all participants were invited to network at a reception, where the participants mixed and talked to one another in an informal environment. NB: GSPP is accepting applications for MPP and MPA programs starting from November 15, 2016 until April 30, 2016.
