Abstract Science, technology, and innovation (STI) shape the foundation of the contemporary society and thus make a major arena of public policy. The complex nature of the STI system poses various challenges, and effective policymaking approaches have been explored and developed. Evidence-based policy making (EBPM) is one such approach that is expected to address the challenges and has been implemented in STI policy design, although it has its own challenges and limitations. In this course, students are expected to learn the context of STI and the basis of EBPM as well as to learn how EBPM can be applied to STI policy design.
