Elon Political Science and Public Policy Preparing students to make the decisions that shape the future

Political science majors at Elon address questions that go to the heart of some of the most important issues in contemporary life. Elon’s program is designed to help you develop critical thinking, reading, writing and research skills. You will also gain an understanding of the theories of politics, knowledge about political systems and forces in communities, and real-world experience in the processes of public policy. You will graduate with the tools necessary to go on to graduate study or build a successful career in politics, law, business, journalism, advocacy and many other fields.
