Beschreibung des Programms

Shape Our Democracy, Our World

Political Science is the systematic study of power at local, national, and global levels. In our BA in Political Science program, you’ll engage in a living discipline that extends far beyond classroom walls. Through exposure to political theories and concepts, and practical experiences and internships, including interaction with real policymakers and primary sources of international news and information, you’ll develop the critical insights, skills, and contacts needed for success.

Build Critical Insights and Skills

  • Participate in engrossing debates and engaging class discussions in a friendly atmosphere.
  • Learn from nationally and internationally recognized scholars who will challenge you to think critically, and grow academically and professionally.
  • Gain exposure to a wide range of issues and concepts, such as conflict, justice, rights, distribution of power, voter choice, political campaigns, political leadership, social movements, how political institutions function, decision-making within governmental and non-governmental organizations, and how to understand and approach major challenges including racial injustice, gender violence, war and conflict, poverty and inequality, the climate crisis, ideological conflicts, democratization, the role of the UN, and globalization.

Add Opportunities and Experiences

By majoring in political science at Pace University, you’ll discover that the wall between the classroom and the real world doesn’t exist. The classroom becomes the gateway from one to the other, and New York City becomes a living laboratory for the study of politics from the local to the international level. City Hall, state legislative offices, and the federal courts are all across the street, and the United Nations and the offices of most NGO’s two subway stop away. You may also have opportunities to join Pi Gamma Mu, the International Honor Society in Social Sciences, Pi Sigma Alpha, the National Political Science Honor Society, and Pace’s award-winning Model United Nations team, a program designed to simulate the United Nations. Students have traveled to Washington, DC and the Hague, the Netherlands, to represent the team. Students have also participated in the Democratic and Republican National Conventions, held internships with organizations and agencies including the New York City Council, the United Nations, the International Refugee Rights Initiative, the Washington Center for Academic Internships and Seminars, American Civil Liberties Union, New York Immigration Coalition, the International Center for Transitional Justice, and How Green Is My Town?—a project of grassroots environmental education and New York-based nonprofit. Additionally, political science students have won prestigious fellowships, such as the Fulbright.
