The paper presents research on the content of postgraduate programs in the field of public policy at leading European universities. Based on previous research, more than 80 courses are classified in four areas: economic analysis, research methods, public administration, and public policy, in order to obtain a typical master program in public policy analysis. The programs mostly emphasize research methods and public policy theory and application with somewhat lower presence of economic analysis and public management. The results of the research can be used for the purpose of formulating new postgraduate programs at universities in Serbia.

Public policy is frequently characterised as a sub-discipline of political science which is practically oriented and concerned with what government does and does not do. Further, policy analysis can also be characterised as concerned with either the analysis ‘of policy’ or ‘for policy’. This clearly has implications for the design and delivery of public policy courses. More broadly, higher education in Australia, like elsewhere, faces calls to ensure that students graduate with a range of skills and aptitudes that make them ‘job ready’ and able to engage with ‘real world problems’. One of the ways in which this can be pursued is through industry engagement. However, limited research has been undertaken regarding what this might entail or how it can be pursued. Accordingly, in this paper we explore these issues by: (a) situating engagement within the field of public policy; (b) reviewing how the changing context of higher education, with a particular focus on the drivers and rationale for greater engagement with industry, intersects with the teaching of public policy; and (c) providing a framework which helps to clarify the different modes, potential and risks associated with industry engagement.

Food insecurity is a pressing concern for students in higher education. Much of the conversation surrounding this problem, however, focuses on undergraduate students. But some research finds the problem extends to graduate students. This study asks the question of how food insecurity may be affecting graduate students in public administration. A pilot study in a Network of Schools of Public Policy, Affairs, and Administration-accredited program reveals that almost one quarter of respondents are food insecure. This includes one in five students who are completing their degrees online. The survey also found an important divergence between the types of programs food-insecure students are willing to use and those to which food-secure students are willing to contribute. Given the effects of food insecurity on academic success and degree completion, this study has important implications for public administration programs.

Using higher education as a context, this article explores public policy and policy analysis in relation to language policy studies and argues for greater consideration of language issues in public policy and policy analysis. Conversely, language policy studies must also expand to integrate elements of public policy analysis in order to reveal the complexities of language practices and policies in societies where linguistic heterogeneity is the norm. This article is divided in two parts, with the first part drawing on a literature review to explore language issues in public policy for higher education. Using data from various studies on Francophone students’ access to and postsecondary experiences in a minority context, the second part will examine higher education in Ontario, Canada, from a public policy and a language policy perspective.*The author wishes to thank the reviewers for their helpful comments, the participants of the 2010 Language Policy and Planning Invited Symposium for the dialogism of our first meeting, and Professor Emeritus Stacy Churchill for his mentorship, his stewardship to the field of LPP and his inspiring work.

No âmbito da Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior – CAPES constatamos uma nova realidade da pós-graduação brasileira na Área de Planejamento Urbano e Regional que se constitui, nos últimos dez anos, através do credenciamento, de programas que (i) se encontram, em sua maioria, fora dos principais centros urbanos do país e (ii) estão voltados para a temática do desenvolvimento regional e da gestão territorial. O presente trabalho procura contribuir para uma reflexão acerca de uma agenda para a formação pós-graduada comprometida social e territorialmente em vista dos desafios que significam as condições atuais que se distinguem, significativamente, daquelas que alimentavam reflexões semelhantes no início do novo milênio as quais serão recuperadas em nossa argumentação, com a proposta de retomada de uma agenda formulada por Ana Clara Torres Ribeiro em 2002.Palavras-chave: Planejamento Urbano e Regional; agenda; pós-graduação; Ana Clara Torres Ribeiro. Abstract: Within the last ten years at the Coordination of Higher Education Personnel Improvement – CAPES – appears a new reality concerning the graduate courses in the area of Urban and Regional Planning through the accreditation of programs that (i) are mostly outside Brazil’s major urban centers, (ii) which are dedicated to regional development and territorial management issues. This paper seeks to contribute to a reflection on an agenda for graduate curses committed socially and territorially in view of the challenges originated by the current conditions which differ significantly from similar reflections at the beginning of the new millennium which will be reviewed within the argument of our essay, in order to get back a brief resumption of an agenda formulated by Ana Clara Torres Ribeiro in 2002.Keywords: Urban and Regional Planning; agenda; graduate; Ana Clara Torres Ribeiro.
