Bachelor of Arts in Political Science
The issues of war and peace, power and violence, law and order, justice and fairness, democracy and freedom, rights and citizenship, diversity and change are at the heart of the study of politics.
Students who study political science are prepared for law school and graduate study; careers in federal, state and local government; public policy and private interests groups; businesses and corporations; regional, trans-national and international organizations; campaign management; journalism; and high school and college teaching.
The liberal arts education political science provides has enabled Ohio Dominican students to find rewarding vocations as college professors, teachers, lawyers, civil servants, public administrators, city planners, policy analysts, diplomats, business leaders and informed citizens.
