| Lernziel | This course helps students with an educational background in natural sciences or engineering to transition into the field of public policy analysis (PPA). It starts with a broad conceptual and historical perspective on technological and scientific innovation, and then focuses on concepts, theories and methods for policy analysis as well as their application to policy questions in a variety of issue areas. The course is heavily based on reading assignments and their discussion in class. The overall goal is to expose students to a variety of ways in which policy analysis can be undertaken, but not to teach specific policy analysis tools in great depth – those skills will be acquired in other, dedicated courses of the MSc STP program. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| 860-0031-00L | Policy Analysis Findet dieses Semester nicht statt. | 4 KP | 2V | B. Steffen, T. Schmidt, Noch nicht bekannt | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Kurzbeschreibung | The course Policy Analysis 1 will introduce important concepts and methods for ex-ante policy analysis. It will mostly focus on the policy content (vis-à-vis the policy process). We will primarily discuss quantitative methods. The course will contain several practical assignments in which students have to apply the concepts and methods studied. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Lernziel | Students should gain the skill to perform policy analyses independently. To this end, students will be enabled to understand a policy problem and the rationale for policy intervention; to select appropriate impact categories and methods to address a policy problem through policy analysis; to assess policy alternatives, using various ex-ante policy analysis methods; and to communicate the results of the analysis. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Inhalt | The course has four major topics: •Rationales for public policy in Science and Technology •Impact of policies on firms and investors •Impacts of policies on socio-technical systems •Impact of policies on society at large | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 860-0100-00L | Doctoral Colloquium in Public Policy Only PhD students. Permission from lecturers is required. | 1 KP | 1K | L. P. Fesenfeld, T. Schmidt, T. Bernauer, B. Steffen | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Kurzbeschreibung | In this colloquium, doctoral students present their research plan within the first year of their doctorate, which is reviewed by three professors affiliated with the ISTP and commented on by the other doctoral students registered in the colloquium. We recommend attending the colloquium for two semesters and present the research plan in the second semester. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Lernziel | Obtain feedback on research ideas for the doctoral research plan and get the research plan approved by three faculty, as required by ETH Zurich. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Inhalt | Doctoral students (typically affiliated with the ISTP or groups of ISTP members) attend this colloquium for one to two semesters. During the first (voluntary) semester they present their preliminary research ideas. During the second (obligatory) semester, they present their draft research plan, which is reviewed by three professors affiliated with the ISTP. The research plan should not be longer than 20 pages (references excluded). The second semester will be credited with 1 ECTS. All students are required to read and comment on their peers’ research ideas and plans throughout both semesters. The results of the review are submitted to the doctoral committee of D-GESS or other ETH departments where ISTP-affiliated doctoral students intend to graduate. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
