Overview
Where better to study politics than the nation’s capital? Carleton's location in Ottawa provides students with numerous chances to see politics not only nationally but internationally. Students will examine such topics of study as international relations, transitions to democracy, parties and elections, globalization and social movements, and the culture and ideas of politics. They can focus on one of eight areas of study: Canadian Politics; Comparative Politics and Area Studies (Global North); Comparative Politics and Area Studies (Global South); Gender and Politics; International Relations; North American Politics; Political Theory; and Public Affairs and Policy Analysis.
International or local exchanges are an exciting possibility during third year, and students may also choose to undertake an internship of their choosing, with permission of the undergraduate supervisor. In fourth year, an internship with the Washington Center is an option for consideration.
