Bachelor of Arts [B.A] [Political Science] From Seton Hall University

It?s a major that will challenge you. Our faculty will develop your ability to think critically, assess situations and develop responses to meet any challenge. They will teach you the theories, institutions and processes of politics and government and will inform you about a wide range of political systems: local, state, national and global. You?ll learn outside the classroom, too, with for-credit internships and research opportunities in New York City, Washington, D.C. and beyond.

Political science majors complete the College of Arts and Sciences core requirements and at least 36 credits in political science. A department adviser will help you plan which courses you take and when, and they may even modify the program to meet your particular background and objectives. Our classes span the political spectrum ? from U.S. politics to international relations ? with focused electives that range from Development and Democracy in Africa, to Organizing Grassroots Communities, to Constitutional Law.
