The Political Science faculty encourage majors to take advantage of the many internship opportunities available to enrich their academic experience at Wittenberg.
Students also serve with the news departments of TV stations in nearby Dayton.
Political Science majors have recently served as interns with members of the Irish and British parliaments. In addition to the internships described above, special efforts are made to make the on-campus classroom experience as relevant and valuable as possible. In addition to their own research and participation in political and governmental activities, Poli Sci faculty bring outside resource persons to the classroom. Public officials, lecture circuit personalities, and foreign affairs analysts have been a regular part of the course experience. Students may work with faculty members on research projects or may participate in polls and surveys of both the campus and the Springfield community.
