MA in Political Science
Political Science appeals to students interested in government, law and international affairs, and to those who want to understand the shaping of our political world. The Brock MA in Political Science allows students to concentrate their studies in one of five sub-fields of political science: Canadian politics, comparative politics, international relations, political philosophy or public policy. Students specialize in one of these sub-fields, but also receive training in the great works and research methodologies of the larger discipline of political science.
