The AB Political Science program aims to provide students with the essential theoretical and methodical background for the study of politics. It is designed for students to acquire proficiency in political science in theory and practice, critically examine real-world problems, find informed and innovative solutions to these problems, and become well-rounded professionals in their chosen careers. In line with its objectives, the program combines coursework with field training. It offers courses in comparative politics and government, political theory, international relations, political economy, and public policy and administration, which are foundations of the discipline. It also offers elective and seminar courses dealing with special topics and issues such as e-governance, political marketing, corruption, law and society, and environmental governance. Students have the option to choose either academic or action research projects for their culminating course.
