MAS policy essays
During the final semester, students write a policy-oriented essay based on a topic of the student’s choice. The essay should be a critical and analytical reflection on a contemporary policy issue in the country where the student completed their on-the-job training. The essays reflect the personal opinions of the students and not the opinion of NADEL or the hosting organization.
