Six domains have been identified as issues that India will grapple with as it transforms itself into a more evolved society. During their time at ISPP, scholars will opt for 3 domains for further studies. Through a combination of lectures and assignments, these will serve to improve the scholars’ understanding of key policy issues in that domain.
ISPP has developed four specialized labs to provide scholars with training in different aspects of public policy. The Writing and Communication Lab teaches scholars verbal and writing skills to communicate effectively in various settings. The Antarang Leadership Lab creates a comfortable space for conversations on personal development as leaders, giving hands-on experience to build leadership skills. The Policy Praxis Lab trains scholars to understand how to make public policy work for the public through policy exercises that emphasize curiosity and empathy. Quant Lab offers scholars an opportunity to work with large datasets to practise statistical analysis and derive policy-level implications and findings. Each lab provides unique training to help scholars in their academic and professional careers.

The Antarang Leadership Lab's mentorship programme provides scholars with an excellent opportunity to network with industry experts. Each scholar is assigned a mentor who will act as a sounding board for their personal and professional development. The mentor-mentee assignments are designed so that the mentee's career interests align with the mentor's area of expertise.
