Political Science at Rose-Hulman:
 
Politics focuses on the enduring questions of how to organize our institutions and societies so as to achieve the goals of justice, security, and material well-being. From high-stakes diplomacy between great powers to struggles over school funding, political interactions abound at all levels. Political science is, in the broadest sense, the study of governments and governing procedures. As such the discipline covers a wide range of topics, with the major subfields being American government, international relations, comparative politics, and political philosophy. Courses dealing with all of these areas are offered here at Rose-Hulman.  

The study of political science is useful not only for helping to better understand the world in which you live, but also by developing critical thinking skills through analyzing complex social interactions. Political science classes count toward the general Humanities and Social Sciences requirements. Those interested in more extensive study can receive an area minor in political science.  Consult the RHIT Undergraduate Bulletin or see below for the requirements.

Political science offerings are listed in the schedule of classes under the HSS Department's thematic categories (Global Studies [GS], Ideas and Arts [IA] and Society and Values [SV]).
