The Political Science minor enables students with an interest in politics to enhance their primary major. This companion program is designed to accommodate students who are not able to complete a full double major, but who see the relevance of government and politics to their major course of study. Students interested in graduate study in political science should consider the Political Science major, as the minor is not designed for this purpose. Students may begin in the minor and migrate to the Political Science major, if they choose.
