Content of the Programme
The Economics & Governance specialisation of the Master Public Administration aims to develop professionals who are able to analyse and address policy problems broadly, and in the field of social policy and market regulation specifically. The focal point is on welfare states and markets. You learn about the role of government in creating, facilitating and controlling markets. You also examine the status of the current welfare state, such as the pension system, social security, labour markets, and income distribution in society; and the challenges the welfare state currently faces. You are provided a strong multidisciplinary preparation for a professional career in areas such as socio-economic policymaking or market regulation. The combination of applied economics and public governance forms a solid base for policy-makers, consultants and future leaders.
4 reasons to choose Economics & Governance
You will learn to produce solutions to current issues found where economics and public administration meet.
You will analyse the ways in which socio-economic policy and regulatory governance can be improved, and how to realise those improvements in dynamic and refractory settings in which you will be confronted with politics and differing interests. You will combine theoretical knowledge with academic and professional skills, in doing so, preparing yourself for a career as a policy advisor, policy analyst, or consultant.
You will be instructed by driven lecturers who are involved in high-level research within your subject and who are experienced with strategic policy advice in practice.
As you will be examining international cases, performing comparative research and having discussions with your fellow students based on their international perspectives, you will develop a broad perspective on issues that involve economics and governance.

Content of the Programme
Why does governance so often fail to effectively address societal problems? Why does the success of policy solutions vary so strongly across countries and policy domains? The specialisation Public Management and Leadership develops a theoretical and practical understanding of how management and leadership behavior is at the heart of understanding – and improving – public governance.
The programme provides an internationally comparative perspective on how the actions of political executives, top-level bureaucrats, managers in government agencies, and frontline professionals ultimately determine successful governance. This expertise prepares you for a career in an (inter)national public organisation or management consultancy.
Public governance broadly refers to the structures, processes and institutions used by the government to address urgent societal problems. However, to understand what makes public governance work in practice, it is necessary to look beyond the structures and processes of government, and pay attention to
the behavior of organisations and the individual actors that operate within them. This master specialisation uses management and leadership theory to critically analyze how the decisions and actions of public managers ultimately determine successful governance. In doing so, the programme has an internationally comparative and practiceoriented perspective.

Terrorism, extremism and political violence remain among the most pressing security challenges of the 21st century. The Terrorism and Political Violence specialisation provides students with a research-led understanding of the causes, dynamics and consequences of extremist thinking, terrorism and political violence in a rapidly changing threat landscape. Students explore both violent and non-violent forms of extremism, including protest movements, conspiracy-driven radicalisation and terrorist activity. The programme combines theoretical perspectives with empirical research to examine when and why individuals radicalise, why some become involved in terrorism while others do not, and how processes of disengagement and deradicalisation can be fostered. Attention is paid to a broad range of contemporary threats, including jihadist terrorism, right-wing and anti-government extremism, and state-directed political violence.
Whether you are interested in the causes of political violence or in developing effective responses to it, this specialisation equips you with the analytical skills and academic foundations required for careers in security research, policy development and related professional fields.

In the multidisciplinary War and Peace Studies track, you will immerse yourself into core academic debates and crucial practical and policy-oriented issues surrounding war and peace. Unique about the programme is that it integrates insights from both war studies and peace studies, fields which rarely talk to each other. In this track, you will learn that you cannot understand war without understanding peace, and that you must understand war in order to know how to preserve and advance peace.
Apart from obtaining knowledge about why war breaks out, how it is conducted, how societies move from war to peace, and how peace is sustained, you will acquire key transferable skills with regard to critical analysis and data collection.
This specialisation is for you if you want to obtain insight into how societies conduct war and how they maintain peace, and what the role of the international community is in promoting peace and security.
It is also for you if you are interested in how theories translate to practice, and want to interact with practitioners to learn about the complexities of warfare and peacemaking.

Violence can create fear and insecurity and may undermine social trust, democratic institutions and the rule of law. In the specialisation Violence, Interventions, and Policing, students are familiarised with the many forms of interpersonal violence, including violence related to crime, genderbased violence, and violence occurring in contexts of public disorder. The programme provides the analytical tools needed to understand how violence emerges, whom it affects, and how it can be prevented or mitigated.
The track places specific emphasis on the role of policing and other security actors. Students examine the legitimacy, effectiveness and consequences of interventions and the use of force, as well as the social, organisational and political contexts in which policing takes place. Attention is also given to prevention strategies and intervention programmes, and to why some responses to violence succeed while others fail.
In four specialised courses, students study the origins, dynamics and social contexts of violence alongside interventions and policing practices. Research skills form a core component of each course, enabling students to critically assess academic research, analyse empirical data and contribute to evidence-based approaches aimed at reducing violent harm in society.
