SPEA in Berlin

SPEA in Berlin provides firsthand learning experiences in public policy on contemporary European issues for current SPEA undergraduate and graduate students. IU students join German students at the Hertie School of Governance (HSoG), which ranks among the most prominent public policy schools in Europe with state-of-the art facilities in the heart of Berlin. Faculty from SPEA and HSoG collaboratively teach the English-language course, which examines the causes and consequences of globalization for Europe. Students analyze specific European policy approaches deployed to promote regional economic development and competitiveness. In particular, the course considers how policy instruments like science policy, workforce development, infrastructure, and promotion of entrepreneurship serve to generate European competitiveness in both historical and contemporary contexts.
