The mission of the political science department is to help our students grasp and engage with politics and power at all levels so that they can become critical thinkers and active citizens with the foundation to pursue careers in public life. Our wide course offerings span the range of issues, from classical theory to contemporary policy, and from international organizations to neighborhood grassroots. Through our diverse and challenging curriculum students acquire the research, writing, and reading skills necessary to think and act in the politics that will determine their future course of local, national, and world politics.

Throughout this program, my classmates and I were not only students; we were agents of change. We learned that as scholars of international affairs and global justice, we have the capacity to shape policies, challenge norms that are otherwise taken for granted, and foster empathy and understanding across borders.” —Angela Bui ’23 M.A.
