The emphasis of the master's program is on developing the analytical capacities, theoretical understanding, and research skills necessary for further work as a political scientist, policy analyst, diplomat, journalist, social activist, or public servant. The master's program consists of course work and a master's thesis of approximately 100 pages. The program is designed so that students can complete it in 12 months, although most take up to two years. The thesis component is an important part of our Master of Arts program. While many universities have eliminated or downgraded the thesis component, we believe that it is essential for students to gain experience in developing their own research projects.
