The program prepares students to analyze contemporary political situations, think critically about ethical responsibility, and respond actively to injustice. As an interdisciplinary department, our students take courses from core faculty with training in history, peace studies, political psychology, education, and modern languages; as well as courses from affiliated faculty trained in sociology, music, literature, philosophy, film studies, women and gender studies, and American studies.
