Our students participate in campus and community politics, and receive individual attention from faculty who teach small classes. Some students earn internships in local, state or national government, or even the British Parliament.

Eight faculty, all with Ph.D.s from leading universities, teach courses ranging from the survey of American politics or international relations, to upper-level seminars on subjects such as American constitutional law, Latin American politics, modern political theory, environmental politics, and media and politics. The end result is a well-rounded education in political science.
