Political Science (Optional Co-op)

Studying Political Science at Carleton University can help students make sense of these significant transformations that will define their life and the world. The University's back-to-basics approach will guide learners through the foundations of the discipline and enable them to explore in depth some of the core fields of political science, such as international relations, comparative politics,

political philosophy, and public policy. Students will also hone research, writing, and communication skills that are essential for almost any career path

they choose to pursue. 

Carleton Political Science students have exciting experiential learning opportunities outside the classroom such as Co-op program, international internships, political science internships and research internships and mentorships and international exchange — to meet, learn, and work with experts and experienced practitioners in a wide range of settings.
