The Political Science Department aims to cultivate a deep understanding of political systems, theories, and practices to equip students with critical thinking skills and analytical tools necessary for engaging with complex political issues. Political science is a social science discipline that explores how governments operate, how laws are made, and how policies are implemented. It also examines the interactions between different countries and the impact of global events on national policies. It plays a crucial role in educating future leaders, policymakers, and informed citizens.

We strive to prepare students for diverse careers in government, international organizations, non-profits, and academia by emphasizing ethical leadership, global citizenship, and civic responsibility.
