Political science examines how resources and values are allocated within societies and groups, analyzing the timing and methods of distribution. Scholars in this field investigate the factors influencing these allocations, such as political parties, voter behavior, public sentiment, advocacy organizations, government agencies, legal systems, global affairs, security policies, intergovernmental dynamics, philosophical foundations, cross-national comparisons, policy development, and dispute resolution. Georgia State's strategic position near key Southeastern and state government hubs, combined with its setting in a global business and transportation metropolis, offers exceptional chances for students to engage with and study political processes firsthand. Numerous political science majors complete internships as an integral component of their studies.
