Bachelor of Arts in Political Science
The Political Science program of the L. Douglas Wilder School of Government and Public Affairs has two central objectives. It offers students a broad liberal arts education and a comprehensive understanding of the nature and functioning of the political process and government. It also provides a sound foundation for graduate study in political science, public administration and nonprofit management, or for careers that require knowledge of governance and the political process, such as law.
