政治学/社会学文学士

政治科学是最古老的学术探究领域之一。在一个日益相互依存的世界中，随着人，团体和国家之间的关系变得越来越复杂，对政治和政府的研究蓬勃发展。现代政治学同样关注自由和权威问题，就像政治哲学和社会科学研究一样。
Political Science is one of the oldest fields of academic inquiry. Social ideals and their realization through law were systematically studied in ancient Greece. In an increasingly interdependent world, the study of politics and government has flourished as the relations between persons, groups and nations have become more complex, and questions of freedom and authority have challenged every citizen. Modern political science is equally concerned with questions of political philosophy and with the pursuit of social scientific research. These concerns are reflected in a broad and diverse curriculum.<br><br>The Political Science faculty are committed to the belief that understanding politics and government is essential to a well-educated person, vital to democratic citizenship, indispensable to effective public service, and critical to the maintenance and ethical progress of a free society.
