Bachelor of Arts - Political Science

Political Science majors are prepared for nearly any workplace, including private industry, the nonprofit sector and local, state and national government.

Graduates have gone on to work for nonprofit organizations focused on immigrant and refugee populations; state and local government; and as analysts for federal law-enforcement and intelligence agencies. They have also found private industry jobs in areas such as lobbying and government relations, as well as data analysis and marketing. Students also frequently go on to law school or graduate programs that focus on international diplomacy, political science, public administration and public policy.
