The PhD Program in MKP establishes directions for academic study that can serve as guidance for students in determining their dissertation topics. However, this does not preclude the exploration of other academic aspects in accordance with the study focuses of public policy and public management, within the context of realizing publicness values and strengthening democratic public sector governance.
Considering the diverse academic and professional backgrounds of students, the program organizes a mandatory matriculation program for one month to provide foundational understanding related to doctoral studies in public policy and management.
This course aims to provide students with theoretical understanding in relation to the ontology, epistemology, and axiology of the study of Public Administration Science.

This course facilitates students to explore the basic principles and practices of qualitative and quantitative research that have been obtained during their undergraduate and graduate studies. Students will learn how to determine the focus of research based on the interpretation of empirical realities that are relevant to the fields of management and public policy, as well as those that have the potential to fill knowledge gaps. Therefore, students’ ability to literately build links between the empirical reality they study and relevant theories will be honed through learning activities in this course.

Public management theory is an interdisciplinary study of the general aspects of organizations, and is a combination of management functions such as planning, organizing and controlling on the one hand, with human resources, finance, physical, information and politics. This course helps students to understand concepts or approaches that explain managerial activities that take place in public sector organizations and public services.

This course is divided into three main subjects, which include an overview of public policy, Actors in the policy agenda; Principles and criteria in policy formulation; and Mapping and influence of stakeholders.

The planning, implementation, and evaluation of learning in the PhD Program in MKP are conducted using a semester-based system. Under this system, learning involves verbal, contextual, and analytical approaches throughout the normal study period of 6–8 semesters. Classroom activities apply classical lectures, tutorials, and assignments, while the research proposal development phase uses an independent study approach, allowing students to learn autonomously while emphasizing active participation in class discussions to accelerate dissertation proposal completion.
The learning process in the PhD Program in MKP applies several learning models, such as:
The collaborative learning model is designed to create a conducive academic climate that encourages students to articulate their ideas in class and collaborate with each other in solving a problem or issue that is assigned in the lecture. In the collaborative learning model, students are given the opportunity to speak, exchange different ideas and question the ideas of other class participants conceptually and empirically. As a result, the learning model produces students with strong and deep analytical skills. In addition, the collaboration model is carried out by sharing sessions with lecturers or students, also across study programs to strengthen cooperation in the academic environment.
It views self-directed learning as better than in-class learning. This model suggests that students look at the lecture material before the class starts. When the lecture takes place in class, the lecture is mostly filled with two-way discussion activities. With this approach, students have understood the teaching material before the class starts, so that the instructor can explore students' understanding more and help them with aspects that they do not understand well, especially in relation to their dissertation research.
This model emphasizes the achievement of students' expertise and competence to encourage novelty and master various research methods in the field of management and public policy. This model emphasizes the achievement of student expertise and competence to encourage novelty and master various research methods in the fields of management and public policy. Several workshops have been held, such as big data analysis training, SPSS or STATA training, NVivo, article writing, Systematic Literature Review method training, and writing bootcamp.
is a learning model that is oriented towards improving students' ability to conduct scientific research. Graduates of the S3 MKP Study Program are required to recognize and apply various research methods to analyze problems in the surrounding environment so that they can bring novelty. Therefore, the learning scheme with the research-based learning model is carried out by equipping students to use certain or current tools and methodologies in accordance with the interests and focus of dissertation research.
