Program Overview

Are you inspired to be a political leader in your community? Or, are you captivated by the power of political unrest?

When you choose to study Political Science at Brescia, you will build a strong foundation of political theories, behaviours and criticisms to leverage while becoming a trailblazer for social change. Uncover the relationship between women and politics, assess examples of leadership in crises or study the structures of governments around the world – in Brescia’s Political Science program, you decide! Under the guidance of your dedicated and academically-recognized professors, you will enhance your problem solving, research and analysis skills through a variety of dynamic courses, including:

Global Politics, Family Policy and Women in Civic Leadership.

Your Political Science experience doesn’t end in the classroom. Outside the classroom, you have an opportunity to be placed with a local government official where you can collaborate to complete a project for academic credit. Or, you can take your learning abroad, by taking advantage of an academic exchange. Through your study abroad experience you will immerse yourself in a new culture and build your network with peers and academic professors to experience multiple aspects of international politics.
