Public policy touches all areas of life, from health care to education, transportation, employment, and everything in between. Thus, the Cornell Brooks School of Public Policy’s undergraduate training provides valuable skill sets for a multitude of careers. While some graduates seek employment across government or industry directly after graduation, others pursue graduate or professional school, either immediately or a few years after the Brooks School.
