Bachelor of Arts - Political Science

A degree in political science leads to a wide range of rewarding careers. Employers value people who can adapt and solve problems, who have excellent written and oral communication skills, who are able to understand and use quantitative data, and who can think critically and creatively. Classes in political science stress the development and exercise of exactly these kinds of skills.

Drury political science graduates attend law school, graduate school, and work in both the public and private sectors, including law, international organizations, media, academia, government, secondary education, non-profits, administration, human resources, diplomacy, and business.

The Political Science major requires a minimum 37 hours of coursework, with optional tracks in American Politics and International Affairs.
