Minor in Political Science


Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Programs of Study

The minor program in political science supplements the curriculum of students majoring outside of political science; it helps students expand their career options into such fields as law, journalism, social studies teaching, business, government, and intelligence. The minor requires 21 s.h. of political science courses. Twelve of those semester hours are in basic courses which are required of all who pursue a political science minor, while the other nine are political science electives that students can tailor to their particular career or intellectual interests.

Program Requirements


Electives: 9 s.h.


The student, in consultation with the student’s Political Science advisor, must select the remaining 9 s.h. from the courses offered by the Political Science curriculum. No less than 6 s.h. must be at the junior/senior level. NOTE: Credits for the Public Service Internship (EDPA 02490 ) do not count toward the political science minor.

Total Required Credits for the Program: 21 s.h.
