About

Overview You’ll have the choice of courses in four subfields: American politics (the political behavior, policies and institutions of the U.S.), comparative politics (the institutions and political processes of other nations), political theory and philosophy (normative theories of politics and history of political thought) and international relations (transactions between states, international organizations and transnational actors). At Cornell University, the Government Major is one of the largest majors in the College of Arts and Sciences, and the Department of Government is a world-leading center for the study of politics. Students new to Cornell may nevertheless be curious about why Government is such a popular major. For some the answer is obvious: because the discipline of political science is such a broad and interesting field, many students major in Government to explore their interests in politics and public life, in the U.S. and around the world. However, the Government department at Cornell also has particular strengths that draw students into the major.Career DevelopmentTop Employment SectorsConsulting/Prof. Practice (18%)Law (18%)Financial Services (15%)Nonprofit Organization (13%)Government (10%)Education (6%)Communications/Media (4%), Business-Other (4%), Technology (4%) I want to find another Bachelor Course
