Undergraduate Major

Political science contributes to a liberal education by introducing students to concepts, methods, and knowledge that help them understand politics within and among nations. A bachelor's degree in political science can lead to a career in business, government, journalism, education, or non-profit organizations. It can lead to a PhD program in the social sciences or to professional school in law, business, public policy, or international relations. Our recent majors have done all these things—and more.
