  • The political science bachelor's program allows students to focus on the subjects that interest them most, with upper-level concentrations available in American politics; citizenship; equality and inequality; global politics; law and institutions; political theory; political economy and development; public law; security and statecraft.
  • The program has progressed through introductory, concentration, elective, and writing-intensive capstone courses to build a comprehensive understanding of politics in all forms. Start your learning in our three gateway courses on American Politics, Comparative and International Politics, and Political Theory, and then advance through courses that students choose to deepen their understanding of their preferred concentration.
  • Students will use tools like historical and institutional analysis, interpretive approaches, and positive hypothesis-testing and modeling to deepen their comprehension of political issues.
  • Students may also opt to gain hands-on political experience through a wide range of internship opportunities, including in the New York State Assembly and Senate, and through our Semester in Washington Program.
