An Undergraduate Political Science Major and Minor are available. A Graduate Political Science Minor is available, in addition to our new interdisciplinary Master of Public Policy.

Either directly, or after graduate study, political science graduates pursue degrees in law, foreign service, public management (all levels of government), policy analysis, international organizations, journalism, university teaching, research, political office and -- as with many other liberal arts graduates -- in business.
Our Master of Public Policy program is now in its sixth year. This degree program is housed jointly in the departments of Agricultural Resources & Economics, Economics, Political Science and Sociology. Students can also design programs of study with faculty in such colleges as Education, Forestry, Health and Human Sciences, Liberal Arts and Oceanic and Atmospheric Sciences. Graduates have found policy analyst, research and program manager positions in federal, state and local government as well as the nonprofit sector.
