Description
Political science is the study of power, governance, and political behavior in domestic and global contexts. At St. Catherine University, students in this major examine how decisions are made, how policies are created and implemented, and how people engage in civic life. With a foundation in political theory, public policy, and comparative and international politics, students also gain critical experience in data analysis, research methods, professional writing, and public communication.
