Suspicion, scandal, and the inevitable rise of political fatigue — in the contested ‘post-truth’ landscape of populist politics and partisan media, the public’s faith in democracy is being sorely tested. You could be a key force in re-establishing that trust, by delivering effective, informed, and inclusive public policies. Our course is focused on public engagement: what works, why it matters, and how the key models and methods might be reimagined. It’s about reaching people — especially young people — to ensure they’re represented in the decisions that impact their own lives. You’ll explore the trends and theories of the field, and the evolving social patterns of political participation. You’ll consider the barriers to entry in the policymaking space, and propose solutions. Blending theoretical insights with applied, hands-on experience, you’ll work with local civic and community groups to grow your practical, teamworking, and communication skills — all vital qualities for any aspiring advocate or policymaker. Be the kind of change you want to see. Our course is home to a global community of change-makers, upskillers, and the politically curious. At home and abroad, our graduates are applying their talents in the public, private, and non-profit sectors, as everything from journalists and analysts to lobbyists and policymakers. Your own journey starts here, with us.

Our City Campus is typical of Nottingham itself. It’s a place that’s big enough to inspire and compact enough to provide a sense of community; one where our best and proudest traditions sit shoulder to shoulder with new theories, new practice and new possibilities. It’s the same mix of heritage and innovation that sums up the city we love. Our City Campus has it all. Six of our academic schools are based here, as well as an innovative public art gallery, open-working office space for local businesses and an incredible legal advice clinic. Our Newton building is a key feature in the city’s skyline, and from there you can walk to both the Market Square and the Victoria Centre, Nottingham’s main shopping hub, in less than five minutes.
