Do you want to go into the heart of the nation’s biggest hot spot at the height of a pandemic? Especially at a university where crowded city streets are your campus?

What is a public policy major? Is it in fact a core academic discipline? Regardless of what it’s called, can you get the same combination of courses at Tufts? Is it better to have skills in a discipline like economics as a major first?
