The Master of Public Policy (MPP) at the Max Bell School of Public Policy, McGill University, is an intensive 11-month program designed to prepare future public policy leaders. The program combines theoretical foundations in public policy with practical, real-world skills, focusing on ethical, legal, economic, and political aspects of contemporary policy issues. Core components include rigorous coursework, case studies led by policy practitioners, complexity seminars in areas such as humanitarian action or AI, and a capstone Policy Lab project with real policy clients. The cohort is small (typically 35–50 students), ensuring interactive classes and strong engagement with faculty and professionals. Graduates are equipped for impactful roles across government, business, NGOs, and international organizations.
