Analysis of Public Sector Organizations
Analysis of Public Sector Orgs
Virtually all government policies depend on organizations to execute and evaluate them. Effective public management therefore depends crucially on an understanding of how organizations work. This course provides a comprehensive introduction to the institutional basis of public policy and administration. A major theme throughout is that explaining organizational outcomes requires the understanding of: (i) the actors involved and their preferences, and (ii) the institutions, or “rules of the game” within which they function. Expanding on this theme will allow us to explain many features of political organizations, including some that may appear (at first glance) to be pathological. The study of organizations is multi-disciplinary in nature, and as a result the course draws upon a range of literature from economics, political science, and psychology. It will focus particularly on applications of behavioral economics and game theory. The course readings and the student assignments will provide ample opportunities for seeing how theoretical arguments are developed and tested. The objective is to give students not only a working knowledge of how public sector organizations work, but also the ability to utilize it across a broad range of settings. The course begins by considering different models of individual and collective behavior. With these tools in place, it then proceeds to study the internal structures of organizations and their management implications. The “principal-agent” framework will guide this discussion. Next, it will examine the impact of the external environment on organizations. Finally, it will consider some prospects for reform.

Programming for Social Impact
In this course, you will learn the fundamentals of programming so you can start writing web applications that can potentially be used in non-profit or public sectors. The course will be very hands-on and you are expected to code during the class. The topics will include - fundamentals of computer science, programming basics, data structures, client-server architecture, javascript, application programming interface, LAMP stack and web frameworks, design tools, scalability issues and infrastructure for application deployment. We will discuss some of these topics in the context of agile development methodology for startups. If you are interested in building a startup as a social entrepreneur, the tools and methods you learn in this course should help you in coding the first prototype of your application. As part of the final project, you are expected to build a fully functional web application. No programming background is required. Students are expected to complete all the reading assignments before the first day of class.

Effective Management in the Public Servi
Effective Mgmt in the Pub Serv
The course is designed to introduce you to the field of public management. It is a practical course, organized around the tools managers may use to influence the behavior of their organizations. The course also discusses the political environment in which public managers must interact. This course serves as an introduction to management in government and in the non-profit and private organizations that contract with and/or partner with government to provide public services. Lectures, cases, discussions and group projects focus on an array of management tools that help managers implement public policy and deliver critical services. While many examples come from the instructor's experience in New York City and US state and federal agencies, numerous comparative cases and projects from Asia, Latin America and Europe are used to discover best practices, common challenges and the impact of culture on organization behavior. The course will be valuable to those expecting a career in large, complex organizations, either as a manager or a policy advisor. A laboratory section focuses on assigned readings and case studies, provides more opportunities for student discussions and brings in prominent guest speakers from multiple sectors.

Artificial Intelligence in Public Policy
Artificial Intel in Public Pol
Prerequisites: INAF U6004 or INAF U6006 This course is meant for students who want to learn the basics of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and how AI is applied for public policy and implications of AI in the future of governance. Students can expect to learn: Foundations of AI. We will go through the mathematical and programming background of how the most common Machine Learning (ML) algorithms work, specifically focused around how to predict scores, classes, and clusters from data. Applications of AI. With the understanding of basics of ML algorithms we will look at how AI is being applied for various functions across businesses, non-profits and governments. Building AI Solutions At the end of the course we will spend time on how to build an AI solution that has a significant value from public policy perspective. We will go through an exercise of how to think of a problem from AI perspective, how to take account data and algorithm challenges when building AI solution. As student groups you will be asked to go through “Concept to Implementation” process and propose an AI solution for a given problem that student is keenly interested in.

THE WRITTEN WORD
Journalism is changing rapidly, but the written word remains as important to journalists today as it was a century ago. It’s still a storytelling medium in and of itself, of course. But even if you don’t plan to work in print, you need to know how to write clearly and accurately in order to supplement or explain video and photos, to put together engaging audio and video scripts, and to pitch ideas to editors.
