Political Science examines methodical ways to analyze political systems. Learners can opt for a broad overview of the discipline or specialize in areas like American government, global comparative politics, international affairs, or political philosophy. Students also have the option to focus on specific geographic regions for specialized study. The Political Science Department provides courses covering all aspects of the field, ranging from U.S. government structures to regional political dynamics, evolving global systems, and both contemporary and classical political thought. The program organizes its coursework into four primary categories: U.S. government, comparative political systems, global relations, and political philosophy. Additional study options include electoral processes, political communication, and policy development.
