About Bachelor of Arts - Political Science

Program Description

The American Political Science Association has developed a broad description of the discipline. “Political Science,” it says, “is the study of governments, public policies and political processes, systems, and political behavior.” The profession’s sub-fields include American politics, political philosophy, comparative politics, international relations and a host of related fields such as policy studies, political geography, political economy, and studies of particular countries or geographic areas. Political scientists use a variety of approaches to examine the process, systems and political dynamics of all countries and regions of the world.

Students majoring in political science must complete a 30-credit course of study. Several required courses introduce students to the discipline’s traditional sub-fields and to different methods of analysis. There is also considerable room for student choice within the major, and the department offers ample opportunities for independent study, honors theses, and internships. Students also may earn a minor in the discipline with 15 credits.
