Political Science (AA-T)

The Associate in Arts in Political Science for Transfer is designed for students planning to transfer to the California State University or other institutions to continue studies toward a Bachelor in Art in Political Science, Government, or Public Administration. They are also prepared to continue in other programs of study that require an introductory foundation of the knowledge and skills to interpret, understand, and effectively participate in political, social, and organizational environments. Students who pursue Political Science degrees at transfer institutions prepare a foundation for careers in politics, law, government education, business, travel, information management, and journalism. Political Science is frequently the most common BA degree for students admitted into law schools in the United States. Political Science majors often find successful careers in business, government service, and in non-profit organizations.
