Frontiers of Public Administration
This seminar aims to pursue the cutting-edge of public administration research. Reading the English literature, students will learn what cutting-edge public administration research is. Given the literature review, students are asked to select a vital issue with public administration and then develop a research approach toward the issue.
Another activity of this seminar is fieldwork. Specifically, the students who conducted the fieldwork during the summer will write a proposal for the policy competition organized by the Public Policy Studies Association Japan. The seminar will also implement a research camp in Yamanashi, Niigata, or Gunma where the population has declined.
