Inside the Master in Public Policy Learning policy through institutions and real-world impact

Info Session | Led by the Academic Director

Public policy is no longer confined to government alone. Today, it shapes decisions across consulting firms, international organizations, corporations, and civil society. Understanding how policy is designed, negotiated, and implemented—and learning to do it in real contexts—has become a critical skill for future leaders.

Join us for an exclusive info session on the Master in Public Policy at IE University. The session will be led by Iván Stola, Academic Director of the Master in Public Policy, and will feature the participation of Political Intelligence, a leading European public affairs consultancy and strategic partner of the program, bringing a real-world policy and institutional perspective to the discussion. 

During the session, we will explore:

• Why this is a critical moment to study public policy, as global challenges demand professionals who can navigate complexity across sectors

• How the Master in Public Policy is designed, combining rigorous academic foundations with hands-on, applied learning

• IE’s strategic partnerships with real institutions, such as Political Intelligence and how these partnerships translate into live projects, case-based learning, and professional exposure

• Career pathways in public policy, from government and international organizations to consulting, tech, and the private sector

You will also gain a clear overview of the program’s structure, specialization tracks, international exposure, and the type of profiles that thrive in today’s policy-driven environment.

Whether you aim to influence public decision-making, advise institutions and organizations, or work at the intersection of policy, business, and society, this session will help you understand how IE’s Master in Public Policy prepares you to turn ideas into impact.
