This program provides graduates with robust training in History and Political Science, developing skills in evidence evaluation, argument construction, counterargument analysis, and clear presentation of research findings both verbally and in writing. Alumni of PSU's History/Government program have found careers in teaching, law enforcement, corporate sectors, and public service, while some have pursued advanced degrees in Law, Political Science, and History.
