Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Political Science

The general objective of the Political Science major is to equip students with the analytical tools necessary to understand political processes at work within their own and other societies as well as among states in the global community. The major program offers a wide variety of courses in the areas of American government, comparative politics, international relations, and political thought. Political Science majors benefit from an active internship program that places eligible students in business and industry as well as local, state, and federal government.
