Political Science
Welcome!
The Political Science major at Southern Oregon University is designed to educate citizens for active participation in a democratic society. The courses in the department are geared toward American government and public administration and policy within the context of the liberal arts. Students find political science useful preparation for graduate study and careers in law, teaching, business, and governmental service at local, state, or federal levels. Students majoring in the discipline are encouraged to: 1) enroll in internships and practicum studies with student government, government agencies, and law offices; 2) participate in the department's Center for Social Research; and 3) begin their training as career professionals and public managers.
