Dear friends, welcome to the IIPA’s forty second APPPA. This historic professional programme has had a great innings of successful feedback from more than a thousand senior officers who are now APPPA alumni and still stay in touch. You too I hope will find these ten months with us a stimulating and enriching learning experience. Many of our earlier participants joined the programme with doubts about its relevance to their present work. But given the first few months of interaction, they changed their minds. The relevance of the course lies in its opening windows of knowledge and opportunities. A few of your predecessors, reluctant as they were at the start, have tied up to continue their APPPA – M.Phil. for a Ph.D. programme. IIPA

is also partnering with foreign universities and academic institutions to enhance exposure to our officer trainees under many programmes. The dissertation exercise, a very important component of the APPPA, encourages a research orientation among participants in a subject area of their choice. We inform and teach appropriate research methodologies in the initial segment of the programme so that writing in an academic format becomes the first takeaway. The course has been shaped over the last forty one years to present before you a total package of social, political, economic and administrative knowledge that also provides choices of electives and optional subjects for you to specialise in. This theoretical base is sprinkled with management, finance and technology related perspectives that our large database of case-studies bring up continuously. The IIPA library with over two lakh books and electronic databases is one of the biggest resources available to you for the ten-month period and beyond. Group-discussions and debates, field visits, presentations and the study visits abroad together create a homely camaraderie among participants and with the IIPA faculty. I assure you that it would be a fulfilling academic experience at IIPA. Please consult any one of the 1400-odd officer participants who have passed through the portals of this historic institute and you will know that finally, APPPA can be a lot of fun. Wishing you all the best and looking forward to meeting you at the IIPA.

T. Chatterjee Director, IIPA

the InstituteThe Indian Institute of Public Administration (IIPA) was established in 1954 as an Autonomous Society. It was set up in the hopeful atmosphere of post-independence enthusiasm on the lines recommended by Dr. Paul H. Appleby the then Dean of the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs, Syracuse University in his work on Public Administration in India. The IIPA represents the hopes of the times, a rich history of governance in transition and houses a vast knowledge-base of administrative and managerial experience. As an institution of learning and research, the IIPA retains the flexibility and nimbleness of a flat organisation catering to the capacity enhancement and research needs of government at the Centre and in the states. Through rigorous action-planning and follow up, the Institute supports various organs of government to improve delivery mechanisms and augment the capability of personnel in government and public service.

In the fast changing political, social and economic milieu, nationally and globally, centralisation coexists with decentralisation, independence with interdependence and sovereign state power with supra national entities. The focus has shifted from Government to Governance and more recently in contemporary India to minimum government-maximum governance. The thrust is on reforms, transparency, accountability and ethics for a citizen-centric governance.

The Institute stimulates not only a study of the theoretical and practical aspects of public administration but also directly trains multiple layers of civil services, defence services, state services and scholars in the discipline, art and practice of administration in the country. Through continuous programmes of research, training, advisory and consultancy services, conferences and seminars, case studies, publication of journals and books devoted to research in various fields of administration, the IIPA, over the past six decades has made significant contribution to various sectors of public administration at the Central, state and local levels.

The competent and multi-disciplinary faculty members of IIPA specialize in the areas of Public Policy, Governance and Administration; Economic Analysis and Financial Administration/Management; Environmental Studies; Human Resource Development and Behavioural Studies; Development Studies; Planning; the Management of Public Enterprises; Information and Communication Technology; the Constitution and the Legal Framework; Rural and Urban Studies; e-governance; Socio-Political Development; Applied Statistics; Disaster Management; Environmental Studies; Civil Service and Administrative Reforms; Social Justice and the Consumer Movement.

Sponsored by the Department of Personnel and Training, Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions, Government of India, the 42nd Advanced Professional Programme in Public Administration (APPPA) is a ten months’ programme, designed for senior officers of the All India Services, Central Services, Defence Services, Technical Services and officers of State Governments.

The Programme offers a unique integration of management concepts, tools and techniques with public policy formulation, analysis and implementation, the design and execution of delivery systems and emerging trends in governance. The purpose is to enhance sensibilities, sensitivities and capabilities of the participants to explore innovative options and choices. The programme develops a critical analysis of policy & service delivery mechanisms at inter governmental, national, regional and/or at the levels of local government. It aims at honing their practical knowledge and skills to deal with management and policy analysis issues across the spectrum of governance.

As many as 1371 administrators/officers including those from the armed forces and a few teachers of Indian Universities have participated in the programme since 1975, the year of its inception. A good number of APPPA participants have subsequently excelled in their respective services and many of them have moved on to occupy important positions in the Government of India and in the states. A vibrant IIPA Alumni Association also exists. The programme fosters a permanent alliance between the IIPA and its participants.

Aim The aim of the programme is to enable the participants to develop a broad perspective and synergy to contribute towards better governance. It seeks to inculcate a mindset that enhances efficiency, service orientation towards citizens and to strengthen leadership qualities for excellence.

Objectives

APPPA seeks to enable the participants to:

• Understand basic concepts of Social Sciences,

the ProgrammePublic Policy and Governance

• Analyze the factors that impact application of policies and modalities thereon;

• Apply analytical skills in decision-making; • Design a framework for administrative

reforms and good governance.• Develop interpersonal skills and sensitiveness

to the needs of the people among public servants.

OutcomesThe overarching goal is to provide a dynamic and integrated approach to the study of public policy and management. As such, this programme is uniquely designed to help the participants prepare for the challenges and opportunities of a career in public administration. Upon successful completion of this course, it is expected that participants will be endowed with critical and creative skills to produce innovative solutions to problems, apply research skills to their areas of function, turn out to be responsible and effective administrators who have advanced knowledge beyond master’s level in public sector management, policy development and governance.

Eligibility The programme is open to officers of the All India Services, Central Services (organised and non-organized, technical and non-technical), and the State Services as also to the officers of the Defence Services subject to the following eligibility conditions:

Tribes) and should not have undergone a training programme of the duration of 12- weeks or more, in India or abroad, during the preceding five years from the date of com-mencement of the programme.

Participants are selected and nominated by the Department of Personnel and Training, Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions, Government of India.

The programme takes in mid-career public servants and intends to prepare them for more senior management roles in their respective services. Accordingly, the programme consists of:

A. Academic Modules: During the first half of the APPPA, spanning over the initial five months, the focus is on theoretical underpinnings, concepts and applications. The streams have been identified on the basis of their relevance to the issues of governance and recent developments in the areas of study. These streams have further been divided into three parts, consisting of A.1: Basic Modules: Theories and concepts, A.II: Thematic Modules: Policy, Administration and Governance, and A.III: Critical Concerns: Issues in Governance. These also include two electives (one each in A.II. and A.III) to be opted by each participant to enable them to study and specialise in their areas of interest. The details of the streams including the electives are given in the Programme Outline.

The streams, with one credit, shall have about

sixteen lecture sessions and half credit streams will be covered in ten lectures.

B. Experiential Learning

B.1 Experiential Presentations: A meaningful and fun-filled exercise, experiential presentations promote mutual sharing of experience and expertise among participants. Each participant would be expected to make a presentation in which the focus is on specific situation an officer has faced at some point in his/her career. These presentations are meant to highlight innovations in the internal administration or in the field; best practices in organizational leadership or project planning and implementation.

B.2 Rural Field Study Visit: This component is intended to sensitize the participants with the socio-economic realities of rural areas. The participants are assigned a theme-based study focusing on various aspects of rural development. They examine the effectiveness of the delivery mechanism and assess the impact of rural development programmes. Small groups of participants visit identified rural areas in different parts of the country and interact with village level functionaries and panchayat members under the overall guidance of a faculty member. The rural field study reports of these visits are presented at a seminar and are useful as future policy reference.

B.3 Urban Field Study Visit: It provides an opportunity to the participants to understand problems in urban administration and management and the challenges in addressing them. The participants study various urban development schemes and their impact on the socio-economic conditions of the people, including those below the poverty line. The study also includes interaction with the functionaries of the municipalities and other development agencies. Like rural field study, groups of 9-10 participants visit specific cities/towns which are selected on the basis of diverse issues in different regions. The urban study reports are also presented at a seminar and are useful for future policy reference.

B.4 Foreign Study Tour: This component is organized with a view to provide an exposure to the participants on governance innovations in

developing and developed economies and draw practical lessons for India. The participants visit two countries (one developed and one developing). They visit important institutions/ organizations in these countries and interact with policy makers and other government functionaries. On their return, they have to prepare reports and make presentations highlighting the lessons learnt from the countries covered during the visit. The High Commissioners and Ambassadors of countries being visited interact with the participants before and after the study tour.

C. The Dissertation and Viva-voce: This is an important component of the APPPA programme leading to the Master’s Diploma in Public Administration (MDPA) awarded by IIPA. In addition, the participants, holding a post-graduate degree with 50 per cent marks or above (recognized by Panjab University, Chandigarh as equivalent to a post-graduate degree), will also be eligible for the award of an M. Phil. (Social Sciences) degree of the Panjab University. This degree may further serve as a pathway to a Ph.D.

In the Dissertation, the participants are expected to make an in-depth analysis of a specific problem and examine its ramifications. In the early stages of the APPPA programme, the research proposal, outlining the research questions and the methodology to be adopted, are presented before a panel of experts and participants for suggestions/ comments. Each research proposal is finalized after its approval by the concerned faculty supervisor. The participants are advised to begin work on the dissertation immediately thereafter. Subsequently, after the submission of the completed dissertation, the participant appears in a viva-voce conducted by an empowered board.

The participants are expected to demonstrate their analytical skill and make a substantial contribution to the theory and practice of Public Administration through the dissertation. They are also expected to undertake a comprehensive review of literature on the chosen subject area and select a topic of interest as well as of relevance to the domain of public administration. There is a provision for participants to undertake field visits, for the collection of the required data, on the recommendation of the supervisor and the approval of the concerned Programme Director. The draft dissertation, in the approved format, must be submitted to the faculty supervisor by mid- February, 2017. The final dissertation, in four copies, must be submitted by early March,

2017, invariably before the foreign study tour.

D. Lectures/Workshops/Seminars/Contemporary Issues/Panel Discussions

The APPPA programme lays stress also on a set of noncredit inputs designed to appeal to creativity, attitudes, values and broadening of vision and knowledge through interactions with eminent personalities from the government, corporate and academic sectors, including visits to institutions. The participants are encouraged to offer their extra-curricular contributions to the group through various means like music, poetry, art, photography, culinary skills and discussions.

E. Specialized Modules: Electives

The elective streams allow for specialization in an area of choice. The participants are required to choose one elective (out of five) during the module on Thematic Modules: Policy, Administration and Governance (A.II), One more elective is to be chosen during the third Module (A.III) from another set of five, relating to Critical Concerns: Issues in Governance. The evaluation of the electives shall follow the same pattern as compulsory streams. At least eight participants have to opt for an elective stream for it to be conducted.

Evaluation and Overall Assessment

The system of evaluation varies from stream to stream and includes written examinations, group presentations, case comments, group reports, case writing, case assignments, research proposals, individual presentations, writing a dissertation and any other method considered appropriate. Late submission of assignments may lead to deduction of marks.

The evaluation of all the streams will be conducted immediately after its completion. To promote greater objectivity, it shall have an external examiner, in addition to the faculty stream in-charges. Equal weight is given to the marks awarded by both internal and external examiners. Each Dissertation is referred for evaluation, on the recommendation of faculty supervisor about its worthiness for the M. Phil. / MDPA degree/diploma, to two external examiners, the average of whose marks shall be taken for final score. The M. Phil. programme carries a total of 24 credits and each credit has 25 marks. The minimum marks required to pass the evaluation shall be: (a) 45 per cent in each course, and (b) 50 per cent in aggregate. Successful candidates shall be classified as under:
