Program Description
The requirements for completion of a minor in each of the five concentrations within the School. As noted above, students
looking to complete a minor concentration outside of the SGPP should confirm the requirements for that minor with the host unit.
Local unit rules and requirements always take precedence.
The program offers expert faculty supervision and specialized course work in five concentrations. One of the priorities of SGPP is to cultivate and explore the various intersections between these all-too-often siloed subfields of our disciplines. Students are,
accordingly, encouraged to explore these intersections in their course selection and research agendas.
o American Politics. This concentration is home to expertise in political psychology, political participation, public opinion and voting
behavior, public law and judicial process, congress and legislative process, political decision-making, political parties, state politics,
and gender and politics.
o Comparative Politics. This concentration is home to expertise in political economy and development, political institutions and elites, democratic theory, public opinion and voting behavior, communist and post-communist systems, Western Europe, Latin America, Middle East, East and South East Asia.
o International Relations. This concentration is home to expertise in international conflict and conflict management, civil conflict and
terrorism, international structures and integration, international theory, international political economy, and comparative foreign
policy.
o Public Policy & Management. This concentration is home to expertise in the public policy process, network theory and science, organizational theory, environment and sustainability, collaborative governance, crime and public policy, and public and non-profit
management.
