Make a research project on current policy relevance in the field of Australian federal intergovernmental relations. Where possible, case studies are encouraged which align with current areas of reform interest for improved policymaking and delivery strategies under the Federal Reform White Paper.

Topic Selection

The topic selected by the student may engage with any critical issue covered by the course. Participants are encouraged to undertake a case study of a contemporary political, policy or public program delivery issue affected by federalism and intergovernmental relations. The case study may provide an opportunity to explore an issue, area or program with which the participant is personally or professionally familiar, or alternately be a project designed around a new area of interest.
