Most of our students pursue a Master of Arts (M.A.) in political science in one of our three concentration areas: public policy, global politics, and American politics. This is a 30 credit program where full time students take three courses per semester and typically graduate in two years. The low-residency online option is available for this degree, and students can choose either the thesis or creative component. Our curriculum is flexible enough that a student could actually fulfill the requirements for two of the concentrations in two years. View the full details of the M.A. program.
