School of Public Policy, Georgia Institute of Technology is a research intensive, globally engaged school. It houses one of the world's top programs in the field of science and technology (S&T) policy. It’s a university partner in the European Union's network of excellence in technology and innovation policy ("PRIME"), and it hosts a major international conference on S&T policy that brings participants from every continent. Because nearly every policy area is intertwined with S&T issues -- the environment, communications, transportation, biotechnology and health, urban development, workforce and education, -- the School is at the center of a wide range of important international, national, and state policy questions.
