Politics and International Studies provides students with a working knowledge of society and how decisions are made. Governments, private industry, and ordinary individuals function within a framework of accepted political and social norms, e.g. notions of justice, freedom, rights and duties. Over time, these norms are challenged by conventional methods such as voting, interest group lobbying and protest movements; or the challenge may be by militant or revolutionary means. Politics and International Studies systematically examines and strives to understand these phenomena. A degree in Politics and International Studies may lead to further specialization, e.g. an M.A. or a Ph.D. It is also a preparation for professional studies in law, teaching, journalism and public administration. Our graduates have a high success rate in being admitted to Law and Graduate Schools. These programs are offered jointly by the Departments of Economics & Politics and International Studies. As an area of academic inquiry, International Political Economy examines the relations between modes of production and distribution in the private and public spheres. Note that, in light of the impacts of globalization pressures on the political economies of the state, these programs have a decidedly international focus. The B.A. Major Program in International Political Economy consists of at least 48 credits, with 24 credits drawn from Politics and International Studies and 24 from Economics. The Honours program in International Political Economy consists of at least 60 credits, with 30 credits drawn from Politics and International Studies and 30 from Economics.
