Write a 3-5 page policy analysis paper on any public issue of interest, from education and
health care to pollution controls and counterterrorism measures. As a college student taking social science classes,
writing policy analysis will deepen your understanding of contemporary issues.
This policy analysis paper should be a concise overview of the issue that briefly covers all elements. It should highlight
the recommended policy option. You will present your analysis at the end of the semester.
A policy analysis defines the problem or issue at hand, describes its background and provides a balanced assessment of
options that policy makers could pursue to resolve the problem. The policy analysis paper should conclude with a
recommended course of action for policy makers.
