政府文学学士-法律与公共政策

当您攻读政府专业时，您的第一堂课将包括《美国政治概论》，《全球体系的演变》和《研究方法》。一旦您对国内政治和国际政治有了扎实的理解，再加上基本的分析能力，您就将走向政治上的伟大。当您批判性地分析州，联邦和国际法律问题以及制定法律决定的机构时，这种专注将为您提供一个理解公共政策的法律基础的框架。它是您在法律和公共政策方面进行高级研究的坚实基础，也是您在公共政策，公共服务，私人机构或政治组织中从事专业职业的坚实基础。如果您打算申请法学院，您可以在此以及任何其他集中获得法律前咨询。
This concentration offers you a framework for understanding the legal underpinnings of public policy as you critically analyze state, federal, and international legal issues and the institutions in which legal decisions are made.

You can get pre-law advising in this and any other concentration if you're planning to apply to law school. When you major in Political Science, your first classes will include Introduction to American Politics, Evolution of the Global System, and Research Methods. Once you've got a solid understanding of domestic politics and international politics, along with essential analytical skills, you'll be on your way to political greatness.
