GRETA NASI

Courses a.y. 2025/2026

I teach public administration classes at undergraduate, graduate, Ph.D and executive level.

More specifically, I teach classes on public management, innovation and digital transformation of governments as well as classes on the scenarios of cyber risks for institutions, critical infrastructures and organizations delivering public services.


Biographical note

I am Director of the Master of Science in Cyber Risk Strategy and Governance, jointly delivered by Bocconi University and Politecnico di Milano, and Associate Professor in the Department of Social and Political Sciences at Bocconi University, Milan. I am also a Visiting Scholar at the Center for Technology in Government at the University at Albany and an Honorary Fellow at the University of Edinburgh Business School.  I previously served as Director of Research for Government at SDA Bocconi School of Management (2016–2022) and Director of the Public Management and Policy Department (2012–2016).

 

I have coordinated and contributed to several international research projects, including AI-PACT, R-MAP, INCENTIVE, Co-VAL, and Horizon and U.S. Mission projects on cybersecurity, digital innovation, and public-sector transformation. Since 2022, I have served as an Expert for the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA).


About

I am a proud mom, I run to chill down and to be able to enjoy good quality food and wine.

I am curious about different cultures and always ready to explore and travel the world.


Research interests

My research focuses on the intersection of public administration, policy, and technology.

I study how institutions address the challenges of public service provision, digital transformation, and governance complexity in an increasingly interconnected and data-driven world. I am particularly interested in how governments use technology to improve service delivery, develop robust digital and cybersecurity policies, and co-create value with citizens.

 

My approach is interdisciplinary, drawing from public administration, service management, computer security, innovation studies, and behavioral public policy. Through research and theory development, I aim to produce knowledge for both academic and policy audiences.
