BACHELOR OF ARTS in POLITICAL SCIENCE
What to Expect in the Political Science Program
When you major in Political Science, you’ll learn how to think clearly, analyze thoroughly, and communicate your thoughts out loud and on paper. You’ll examine the great questions of justice and empire, freedom and tyranny, and war and peace. And you’ll read and discuss original texts and personal speeches by the world’s greatest political philosophers and statesmen. And finally, you won’t work from a textbook—you’ll openly discuss your thoughts and perspectives in a seminar-style class environment with professors who challenge you to think deeper.
Political Science Program Benefits
In this program, you’ll:
- Study original texts to discover the truth for yourself, rather than having it served to you in a textbook
- Learn from quality professors who are experts in their field and mentor you throughout your coursework, thesis, and research
- Uniquely learn through a conversational, seminar discussion format that invites sharing rather than lectures
- Attend prestigious events with regarded political minds sponsored by the renowned Ashbrook Center, which has previously hosted notable public figures including Ronald Reagan, Colin Powell, Margaret Thatcher, Henry Kissinger, William Bennett, and others
- Attend a biannual study abroad trip to take your learning overseas
- Gain irreplaceable real world experience through numerous internship opportunities
- Prepare for graduate school by writing your senior thesis under the expert guidance of a faculty member
