About Bachelor of Arts - Political Science - Political Science Pre-Law

Program Description

Several majors at Washington State University offer pre-law as a curriculum option.

The term "pre-law" does not refer to any specific academic major. Law schools do not prescribe particular undergraduate courses, nor do they favor certain majors in admission decisions. Any major students choose can serve as pre-law preparation.

Pre-law prepares students for law school and opens doors to advanced degrees and a wide variety of careers.

While any major that develops strong critical thinking and communication skills can serve as pre-law preparation, Washington State University offers a curriculum specially tailored to pre-law study in the following majors:

History
Natural Resource Sciences
Philosophy
Political Science

Students can further specialize their pre-law studies by taking courses in business and environmental resource economics and management, among other possibilities.

POLITICAL SCIENCE

This option focuses on how political and social forces shape and give meaning to American law and legal institutions. The program prepares students for the postgraduate study of law, providing them with both specific skills and breadth of education. The approach is multidisciplinary and draws on courses not only in political science but also in English, economics, philosophy, sociology, history, and other disciplines.
