The Department of Political Science offers flexible programs of graduate study leading to the Doctor of Philosophy degree. Our aim is to provide the highest quality graduate training for students who go on to academic teaching and research positions, and to non-academic careers in the public and private sectors. Our graduate students benefit from an active, engaged faculty, extensive methodological training, a focus on inter-disciplinary approaches, and close work with a faculty mentor under our apprenticeship model of faculty-student relationships. Many students establish intellectual connections with other disciplines and departments on campus.<br><br>Students are trained in primary and secondary fields of political science, in addition to methods. The primary field is chosen from four traditional sub-fields (American Politics, Comparative Politics, International Relations, and Political Theory) and is completed via coursework and a written comprehensive exam. The second field may be chosen from the four main sub-fields, or from the department's foci in Politics of Identity and Politics of the Environment, or it may be defined by the student, subject to approval.
