The majority of our students enroll in our Master of Arts (M.A.) program in political science, specializing in one of three focus areas: public policy, global politics, or American politics. This 30-credit program allows full-time students to complete three courses each semester, usually finishing within two years. We offer a low-residency online format for this degree, with both thesis and creative component options. Our adaptable curriculum even enables students to meet the requirements for two concentrations within the two-year timeframe.
