Most of the students for whom this sequence is intended are already taking courses proposed for inclusion in the sequence both within and without the Department. Many of them also participate in Study Abroad programs and internships. The proposed sequence is a recognition of changes in Political Science and the marketplace that have already caused our students to change their academic decisions in these areas. There is, then, little impact on existing campus programs expected from the adoption of this sequence. All courses within the concentration are taught on a regularized basis.
All courses can accommodate additional students.
No new funds are required. Appendix A. Course descriptions for Political Science courses within the Global Studies Sequence. POS 240 Latin American Politics.
