Politics affects everyone. It is through politics that the future of the world we inhabit is shaped. Aristotle called politics the master science because he recognized how wide and pervasive politics is. The interests of political scientists are diverse. They include conflict at city hall or in the courtroom; the arguments and processes through which our national existence might be preserved; the collapse of Communism and the struggle to establish new political arrangements in its place; the role of pressure groups in shaping public policy; electoral reform; the control of civil servants; the rule of law among nations; the place of moral principle and national interest in the conduct of foreign policy; or how far any citizen might have the right or duty to disobey an unjust law. Political Science offers us the opportunity to become freer human beings and citizens because, whatever the subject of our immediate inquiry, the focus is always upon the ideas, institutions and processes that shape our lives.

The BA Honours program provides students with the opportunity for a more intensive examination of issues in the field.

Political Science may be combined at the Honours or Pass level with other disciplines, the choice depending upon the student's interests and capabilities. As well, it is possible, within the departmental offerings, to arrange a thematic program of study around a selection of courses built to suit the student's particular interests.

All students in Political Science especially those proceeding to graduate studies or to a career in the public service, are encouraged to become proficient in a language other than English, normally French. Students who develop interests in a particular geographical area are urged to select related courses in history, language and literature. Questions about the Political Science program should be directed to the Undergraduate Advisor.

Political Science Co-operative (Co-op)

The Political Science Co-op program combines academic and work terms over a four and one-half year period. Students spend two years in an academic setting doing course work prior to taking the first work term. In addition to the current fees for courses in academic study terms, Political Science Co-op students are assessed an annual administration fee (see Schedule of Fees).

Eligibility to continue is based on the students major average and non-major average. A student with a minimum 70 percent major average and a minimum 60 percent non-major average will be permitted to continue. A student with a major average lower than 70 percent will not be permitted to continue in the Political Science Co-op program. If a student subsequently raises their major average to 70 percent, the student may be readmitted to the Co-op program only if approved by the Co-op Education Office in consultation with the Department.

All students in the Co-operative Education program are required to read, sign and adhere to the terms of the Student Regulations Waiver and Co-op Student Manuals (brocku.ca/co-op/current-students/co-op-student-manuals) as articulated by the Co-op Education Office. In addition, eligibility to continue in the co-op option is based on the student's major average and non-major average, and the ability to demonstrate the motivation and potential to pursue a professional career.

Each four-month co-operative education work term must be registered. Once students are registered in a co-op work term, they are expected to fulfill their commitment. If the placement accepted is for more than one four-month work term, students are committed to complete all terms. Students may not withdraw from or terminate a work term without permission from the Director, Co-op Education Office.

The Political Science Co-op program designation will be awarded to those students who have honours standing and who have successfully completed a minimum of twelve months of Co-op work experience.

Students whose primary interest is in public policy and administration as a field of study, or as a potential career are advised to consider the Co-op program in public policy and administration, outlined below. This program leads to a BA (Honours) Political Science.

Public Policy and Administration Co-operative (Co-op)
Public policy refers to the laws and regulations created by governments, and public administration the political, legal and managerial dimensions of the public sector that implements those policies . Designed to equip students with the necessary skills, knowledge and practical experience to provide them with a competitive edge in seeking employment in the Federal, Provincial or Municipal levels of government, the Public Policy and Administration Co-op program combines academic and work terms over a four and one-half year period. Students spend two and one-half years in an academic setting studying political science with a specialization in public administration and public policy prior to their first work term. In addition to the current fees for courses in academic study terms, co-op students are assessed an annual administration fee (see Schedule of Fees).

Eligibility to continue is based on the student's major average and non-major average. A student with a minimum 70 per cent major average and a minimum 60 per cent non-major average will be permitted to continue. A student with a major average lower than 70 percent will not be permitted to continue in the Public Policy and Administration Co-op program. If a student subsequently raises their major average to 70 percent, the student may be readmitted to the Co-op program only if approved by the Co-op Education Office in consultation with the Department.

All students in the Co-operative Education program are required to read, sign and adhere to the terms of the Student Regulations Waiver and Co-op Student Manuals (brocku.ca/co-op/current-students/co-op-student-manuals) as articulated by the Co-op Education Office. In addition, eligibility to continue in the co-op option is based on the student's major average and non-major average, and the ability to demonstrate the motivation and potential to pursue a professional career.

Each four-month co-operative education work term must be registered. Once students are registered in a co-op work term, they are expected to fulfill their commitment. If the placement accepted is for more than one four-month work term, students are committed to complete all terms. Students may not withdraw from or terminate a work term without permission from the Director, Co-op Education Office.

The Public Policy and Administration Co-op program designation will be awarded to those students who have honours standing and who have successfully completed a minimum of twelve months of Co-op work experience. This program leads to a BA (Honours) Political Science.

Paralegal-Seneca College
The Paralegal program involves courses offered through Brock University and Seneca College. Paralegals are legally qualified to offer specified legal services directly to the public for a fee without the supervision of a lawyer. The Seneca program is designed to provide students with an understanding of general law principles, legal ethics, small business practices, and other legal subjects. Students are also required to complete a field placement at the end of their year at Seneca. Students who successfully complete the requirements for this program will be granted a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) Political Science degree from Brock and a Paralegal diploma from Seneca College. Gaining both a degree and this diploma would ordinarily involve attending college after gaining a university degree, but the Brock and Seneca program combines the two in a single integrated package that can be completed in four years. Applicants must have a minimum 70 percent major and overall average to be considered for admission to the program. Volunteering experience is considered an asset. Successful applicants must maintain a minimum 70 percent major and overall average during Year 2 and meet other program requirements to continue in the program. Enrolment in this program is limited. Admission to the program is not guaranteed by attainment of the minimum requirements.

Political Science and Labour Studies-George Brown College or Niagara College
This Political Science and Labour Studies program involves courses offered through Brock University and George Brown College or Niagara College. This four-year program combines courses and training in applied labour studies settings at George Brown College or Niagara College with a degree at Brock. The program caters to individuals who wish to have a career in a wide variety of areas including unionized environments, occupational health and safety, politics, or human resources. The program allows students to gain both solid applied skills in these areas, and a strong theoretical knowledge about a variety of these topics. Students who successfully complete the requirements for this program will be granted both a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) Political Science and Labour Studies degree from Brock, and a certificate from George Brown College or Niagara College in Human Resources Management. Gaining both a degree and a certificate would ordinarily involve attending college after gaining a university degree, but the Brock and George Brown program and Brock and Niagara program combines the two in a single integrated package that can be completed in four years. Applicants must have a minimum 70 percent major and overall average to be considered for admission to the program. Volunteering experience is considered an asset. Successful applicants must maintain a minimum 70 percent major and overall average during Year 2 and meet other program requirements to continue in the program. Enrolment in this program is limited. Admission to the program is not guaranteed by attainment of the minimum requirements.

Please consult the Labour Studies entry for a listing of program requirements.

Political Science and Public Administration-Humber College
The Political Science and Public Administration-Humber program allows students with a career interest in the public service to take an Honours BA and post-graduate certificate in Public Administration in 4 years. Students must have a minimum 70 percent major and 70 percent overall average in Year 2 at Brock to be eligible to apply for this comprehensive program. Students will complete 15.0 credits at Brock, then proceed to Humber College for their final year. Upon successful completion of the Humber requirements, including a work placement, students will receive 5.0 transfer credits toward their Honours BA in Political Science at Brock, and a post-graduate Certificate in Public Administration from Humber. Enrolment in this program is limited. Admission to the program is not guaranteed by attainment of the minimum requirements.

Certificate Program

The Political Science Department offers programs leading to a Certificate in Public Policy and Administration and a Certificate in Public Law. These programs provide an overview for interested people who do not wish to proceed to a degree or those who have already obtained a degree with a major other than Political Science. Only under exceptional circumstances and with special permission from the department will applicants who already have a degree with a major (or combined major) in Political Science be admitted.

The Certificate in Public Policy and Administration is of interest to people already employed in the public sector environment and wanting to embark on a program of part-time studies.

The Certificate in Public Law is of interest to people already employed in the legal and justice fields who wish to embark on a program of part-time studies and to those with Community College qualifications in law and justice who would like to add university-level certification.

The requirements for admission to the certificate programs are the same as for admission to the degree program. For those without a degree, the equivalent of five approved credits selected from the lists below are required.
