Roosevelt House Certificates

Public Policy Program

Hunter College students, including Roosevelt Scholars, may pursue either an 18-credit minor or a 27-credit certificate through Roosevelt House's Public Policy Program. Its newsfeed is known as P-cubed.

The P-cubed community is based on the understanding that informed citizens are essential to a healthy democracy and that an appreciation for public policy is an important aspect of a liberal arts education. Designed to engage students from a diversity of majors, P-cubed provides students with the knowledge and skills that enable them to be active participants in a democratic society. In addition to academic training, P-cubed offers opportunities to move beyond dialogue to action, both within and beyond the Hunter community.
