Disciplines and approaches

The Einstein School focuses on the interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary field of public policy, particularly in connection with ETH's expertise in the natural sciences, engineering and architecture. Public policy research analyses political problems and evaluates existing and potential solutions. It therefore focuses on various disciplines in the social sciences and humanities. Based on these disciplines, the Einstein School addresses the following three aspects of public policy:

• Policy options and their evaluation
• Politics, governance and institutions
• Ethics
