The political science major offers a program which is designed to provide students with an understanding of the political process as rooted in the political environment, its historical and philosophical foundations, its institutions, and alternative techniques and methodologies used in the study of that process. 

Students will gain an understanding of the basics of the political environment and process within areas of international relations, comparative politics, political philosophy, American politics, and law.

This foundation, combined with college-wide liberal arts requirements, will provide students with a wealth of background enabling them to pursue a wide range of career and post-graduate study options.
