The Department of Political Science strongly supports International Studies (or Study Abroad).  Each semester, we have PSC majors going to Europe, Latin America, Asia, or Africa.  To study political philosophy in the land of Machiavelli, Irish politics in Galway, or even American politics from the viewpoint of another country are educationally exciting experiences.  

Normally, you'd take 12 credits, with some of them being in other fields as well.  We cooperate closely with our Office of International Studies.  Courses taken abroad on international relations and comparative politics become a valuable part of your education in politics and count toward our certificate or concentration in International Relations.

Below are examples of our study abroad students:
