Welcome!
Our undergraduate program broadly represents the fields of contemporary Political Science. Virtually all subfields are represented. While some specialized courses have immediate utility in practical settings, and we offer opportunities to link academic study with internships, the undergraduate mission of the Department is to impart the knowledge and intellectual skills that enrich lives and permit active citizenship. We take seriously the role of providing a civic leadership education.
Graduate study in small seminars and faculty mentorship is designed to produce new generations of scholars and teachers who create and disseminate knowledge. The diversity of this faculty in substantive focus, theoretical orientation, and methodological skills provides a graduate experience that maximizes the opportunity for our PhDs to make distinctive contributions in their fields. The faculty who join us in the future will augment this distinctive strength.
If you have questions, please contact us.
