The Department of Politics seeks to establish a course of study that enables students to evaluate their personal and collective goals in light of moral and political principles within the context of Catholic values.
Courses focus on the environments of America and of the world from a multiplicity of perspectives.
The aim is to minimize bias and presuppositions and to maximize critical analysis and objectivity. The department offers courses leading to a major or minor in Politics. Transferring students may apply only two transferred politics courses to a Politics major or minor at the University. See our slide show presentation For a complete description of the course requirements for this major, consult the current University Catalogue or contact the Admissions Office for assistance.
