The core of comparative politics is an understanding of the theories, concepts, and methods of comparative political and political economic analysis. The goal of training in this area is to develop mastery of social science research methods, to learn how to utilize the methods of comparative analysis, and to acquire political and cultural understanding of particular countries. Students in this field focus on the comparative study of political systems, political processes, and political behavior. Within comparative politics, MIT has a longstanding and thriving focus on comparative political economy, the study of state-economy relationships across both advanced industrial and developing nations. Generally, study in comparative politics and comparative political economy leads to overseas research and the opportunity to become familiar with a foreign society, political system, and economy. MIT Political Science provides a field research methods seminar to assist students in preparing their dissertation proposal for overseas research.
