Public Policy is the base of government and state on which the entire process of governance thrives. Public Policy is the dynamic face of State and society. The nature of social, economic and political development of a society is completely dependent upon the public policy formulated by a government. Consequently, there is a strong interface between Law and Public Policy. Therefore, Bachelor of Policy Science has been designed in accordance with the changing nature of socio-economic conditions of the society. This is based on new developments in the wake of Liberalization and Globalization, which has led to the expansion of market-forces and the new kind of demand coming on the fore.
