We pride ourselves on our flexibility and our ability to maintain the academic quality of our programs. We are engaged in a continuous effort to improve present structures and alter them when necessary and possible. In this respect we are always open to new considerations for courses and programmes, and, where financially and academically feasible, we will attempt to innovate and adjust. The department offers five programs. Remember that 24 of your available elective credits must be taken outside the department's curriculum.
Students are responsible for satisfying their particular degree requirements.
The honours programmes are intended for the quality student in Political Science and we encourage all students to enquire further about the aims, objectives and advantages of the honours degree with the Chair and the honours adviser. A source of pride for the department, our honours programme have over the past years produced a number of outstanding graduates who have gone on to pursue more advanced studies with brilliant success. Our students have entered the best universities for graduate and legal studies and have been awarded scholarships and fellowships for their outstanding academic achievement. 6 credits may be taken in a cognate discipline with the permission of the Department. In order to maintain Honours status, students must obtain approval for their programmes from the Honours adviser each year, prior to registration.
