Le Moyne College Political Science Department

Welcome to the Political Science Department at Le Moyne College in Syracuse NY

Political Science is both a classical discipline as well as one of the youngest social sciences. At the same time, it is one of the more interdisciplinary disciplines. Thus, it provides students with an excellent understanding of the human condition.

 

Political Science emphasizes the kinds of skills all employers value, including the ability to present ideas clearly both verbally as well as in writing, the ability to argue, debate, and develop cogent positions, the ability to critically analyze and carefully collect and interpret data, organizational skills, and the ability to “think outside of the box.”
