The Department of Political Science is focused on undergraduate education, small classes, intensive writing assignments, and close interaction between students and faculty. We encourage students to develop the ability to think critically, and our classes explore the meanings of concepts such as justice, democracy, totalitarianism, rights and responsibility. We support our students in internships, service learning, and study abroad opportunities. We aim to develop students' capacity to think and act in the world that will serve students long after they graduate.
