Overview Welcome to MSU and the Department of Political Science and Public Administration. We are happy to have you join the approximately 250 undergraduate students who are majoring in political science. The department has 18 faculty members, including four women faculty, two African Americans and one African. Our faculty is well-known for excellent teaching (several have won awards), significant research and active publishing. We also pride ourselves on being open and accessible to our students. Courses in political science help students learn to think analytically and critically and to communicate effectively. Political science majors are pleased to find many of their classes are relatively small, with most enrolling fewer than 30 students. They also discover that political science offers three different honors courses every year. Small classes facilitate intense but friendly student-faculty interaction. Thus, political science majors are challenged to engage in some serious self-examination, and writing and reasoning skills are put to the test. MSU\\\'s bachelor\\\'s in political science is one of the best in the country, as reflected in our students winning so many Truman Scholarships. MSU is among an elite group of five universities to have first received the Truman Honor Institution Award, granted by this prestigious foundation based in Washington, D.C. Our students have won Madison and Mitchell Fellowships. Our graduates pursue many career paths. Many go on to law school or graduate school (including our own master\\\'s programs) Others pursue a variety of careers, including politics, government service, the military, business, public relations, teaching and ministry.
