Bachelor of Arts in Political Science

Program Overview

A government is the system and processes that control countries, states and communities. The study of political science — whether at the local, national or international level — examines important political events, institutions and behaviors.

What Will You Learn?
Political science majors experience four areas of government and politics:

  • American government
  • International relations
  • Comparative politics
  • Political theory

Within these broad areas, you will have the opportunity to learn more about:

  • The Presidency
  • Congress
  • The Judiciary
  • Government and politics in different regions of the world
  • International organizations
  • Constitutional law
  • Local governments
  • Research methods

What Will You Do?
A major in political science will prepare you for a career in federal, state and local government, nonprofit work, the private sector, international organizations, law or education. There are many fields that need employees who are knowledgeable about policy and law.
