Combined Bachelor of Arts Honours (Economics and Political Science)

FPAVoices-People-Farida HassanAs someone interested in international public policy, Farida has taken full advantage of her undergraduate experience.

Not only did she complete an internship with the German Parliament last summer, she also volunteered for a Canadian MP, where she conducted a comparative study on proportional representation. She says both experiences contributed to her future plans.

“International public policy is where government, civil society and business intersect. That goal came from what I learned here: put yourself out there and doors will open.”

Farida was also an active member in Carleton’s Mobility and Politics Research Collective, a group of undergraduate and graduate students who share an interest in research on refugee issues. She plans to build on her undergraduate experiences as she pursues a graduate degree at the Hertie School of Governance in Berlin in the fall.
