Political Science is the study of politics and government and one of several academic disciplines in the Division of Arts, Languages, and Social Sciences at College of the Redwoods. Political Science makes and excellent undergraduate major or minor, affording students a number of career opportunities. While College of the Redwoods does not offer a formal degree program in Political Science, students should find that they are able to take enough courses to provide a solid foundation in the discipline should they decide to major or minor in Political Science upon transferring to a 4-year college or university. Even if you don't plan to major in Political Science or transfer to a 4-year institution, you should still consider enrolling in one or more Political Science courses. By learning more about the political system in which we live, students are able to acquire the tools necessary to become active participants in the political process.

Furthermore, an undergraduate degree in Political Science provides an excellent background for graduate study in fields such as law, public administration, and business.
