Program

The programs in politics and policy weave together broad theoretical concerns about politics and political values with more focused questions of applied policy analysis. Emphasis is placed upon the connection between values and practice.  Educational opportunities include policy internships, policy research, and various projects in which students and faculty examine a wide range of domestic and international policy issues.  The purpose is to prepare students for careers in university teaching, nonprofit organizations, government, consulting, and business. A significant number of students direct their studies and careers toward participation in the international arena.

Specific areas of study allow for concentration, in which students may design their own areas of focus in consultation with an advisor.  The personalized and transdisciplinary approach of CGU allows students to complement their programs with study in economics, history, psychology, and other related fields.
