The Department of Political Science explores the political, economic, and social issues that comprise and affect both the domestic and foreign arenas at many levels, from individual people and single countries to groups of countries that are joined for various purposes or geographically related. Study integrates academic rigor with real-world experience to learn the structure and operation of politics and power. Students learn to appraise, analyze, and research information within the context of both contemporary and historic periods. A political science degree provides a basis for many career options in government, international affairs, public education, and the private sector.
