  *This program currently accepts students who can study in Japanese.

The central focus of this Program, based on GRIPS’ aim of training policy practitioners with a high level of both practical knowledge and policy analysis skills based on academic learning, is the execution of doctoral dissertations based on case study research. The Program specifically targets practitioners with substantial professional experience who also have basic policy analysis skills.

First-year students, in principle, attend an intensive series of lectures and seminars, and create a thesis outline. After their second year, they return to their workplaces and their professional duties while continuing dissertation in order to complete their research and earn a doctorate within three years.

The Program seeks to make maximum use of students’ experience and awareness of policy issues, combining this efficiently with academic training at GRIPS to generate outstanding case study research and, in the process, hone students’ skills as top-class policy practitioners. To this end, the curriculum focuses on development of analytical skills in the necessary academic disciplines, broadening of students’ perspectives, and teaching of research skills through such endeavors as thesis writing. In addition to the disciplines of politics and public administration, the program draws widely on areas such as economics, international relations, law, and engineering.

Entry is, in principle, limited to policy practitioners who hold master’s degrees and have the necessary practical experience and/or research skills to undertake case study research at the doctoral level. They should have at least 10 years’ experience working in organizations such as government departments, journalism, or non-profit organizations.
