[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's widely understood that Duke has the best undergrad public policy program, not just in terms of ranking (depth/breadth of the department historically) but in terms of actual educational/professor quality.

However, with that said, undergrad public policy at the better institutions is more broadly understood as a liberal arts major closer to political economy or economics with a political tilt, so I would also look closely at institutions with strength in those areas even if they aren't necessarily exactly known for having a "public policy" major as such.  Yale, for example, has an "ethics, politics, and economics" major which is virtually identical to what Duke calls public policy, so it might not be a bad idea to take a look at other institutions as well.

Widely understood by who? I'm baffled by this take and can't tell if you just have children at Duke or attended. I could see Duke as maybe top 5-10 range, but not number 1.[/quote]

No, but I'm in a related field and have been around enough to know how well their undergrad public policy is regarded relative to other schools (rightly or wrongly).  The people in this thread keep listing schools that don't even have a public policy program!  [/quote]
