The Indian School of Business will start a one-year programme in public policy in 2015 to help government officials and private sector executives have a better understanding about public policy-related issues.
The masters programme would be offered by Bharti Institute of Public Policy at the ISB, which has campuses in Hyderabad and Mohali.
The one-year programme, dedicated to public policy, would be open to senior government officers and private sector executives, according to Pradeep Singh, who is Deputy Dean and CEO of ISB's Mohali campus.
"It (the programme) has been approved by the government and would be delivered by the ISB... Government will nominate officers to come and attend the programme. We hope to start that programme next year," Singh told PTI.
Those pursuing this programme do not have to take a break from their employment.
