The Major

 

A student is required to take 30 credits (10 courses) for the Major. This includes the three introductory courses (PO 11, PO 12 and PO 14) and one intermediate course in each of the four subfields (Political Theory, International Relations, Comparative Politics and American Politics). The remaining three Politics "electives" may be taken in any of the four subfields or in internships or independent study.
