Why Wooster?

› In a liberal arts setting, political science majors easily can take advantage of the interdisciplinary nature of their studies. Wooster’s curriculum encourages majors to pursue the concentration that interests them, even possibly designing their own concentration.

› Majors also have numerous opportunities for off-campus study, including internships appropriate to a student’s special interests and qualifications. Programs take Wooster students to Washington, D.C., the United Nations in New York, abroad to Europe, Latin America, and Asia, and to other urban centers around the United States.
