Political Science courses allow students to explore the organization and behavior of people, groups, and institutions that make up our government and larger political systems. Political Science focuses on people interacting with one another and the impact of their decisions and behavior.

Political Science majors have enormous career options available to them: Students may pursue careers in the social sciences, city and state government, public relations, and social and community service. With a graduate degree in Political Science, students can prepare for careers as political scientists, lawyers, and political science professors.
