Research at CPP

Overview

At the College of Public Policy, part of Hamad Bin Khalifa University (HBKU), research is the heart of everything we do. All of our faculty members are actively engaged in major projects, often enlisting students as research assistants. The research that faculty do feeds and enriches their teaching. Our students are writing papers for all their courses, and then have thesis and capstone projects to stretch their research and writing abilities.

Our research is multidisciplinary and comparative in nature, with many projects focusing on global and international policy challenges. At the same time, our mission is to support policy making in Qatar, and help build capacity towards the Qatar Vision 2030.
