The Master's programme in governance has three streams:

1. a MA Thesis (DG 700) which is reserved for students who have achieved at least B+ average in the Postgraduate Diploma in Governance;
2. two postgraduate courses plus a Supervised Research Project (DG600); and
3. nine postgraduate courses including the required courses for Postgraduate Diploma in Governance and four additional courses including DG403 and PL401 (alternatively PL403) if a student has not taken them before.

Courses:

DG403, PL401 (alternatively PL403); plus two 400-level elective courses. Those who already have taken DG403 as part of their Post Graduate Diploma need to take one other 400-level Governance course instead.
