Bachelor of Public Affairs and Policy Management (BPAPM)
Michelle was drawn to the international studies stream of the BPAPM program. What she didn’t anticipate was the complexity of it.
“We were taught to look at international issues in a holistic fashion— examining development, international relations, and law all together—and I really liked that. It wasn’t just one-sided.”
Michelle adapted that approach for her Honours Research Project, which focused on the internationalization of sexual violence against women and girls in conflict, and how that affected domestic policies and legal jurisdictions. She presented her research in the 180HRE competition—a three-minute defense of undergraduate research.
This summer, she’s working as a Research Assistant on the implications of regionalism and international law. Next fall, she’ll head to the Munk School of Global Affairs in Toronto for a Master’s degree.
