Effective public management is essential in a democratic form of governance, and several La Follette School faculty members conduct research on how programs are designed and implemented as well as the consequences of public policies for citizens.
Faculty members have expertise in the U.S. public policymaking process, regulation, institutional design, and administrative law. They focus on the challenges of governance in an era where countries, states, and their populations are deeply interconnected across a range of economic, political, security, and social issues
