Have you ever thought about how you could make a real difference in your community? Have you ever considered managing a campaign or even running for elected office? Appalachian State University's Bachelor of Science in Political Science - American Politics degree prepares you to work effectively and to productively engage in politics.
In the American Politics concentration, you will have the opportunity to learn from faculty who specialize in electoral behavior, political institutions, public administration and judicial behavior. Students are encouraged to participate in local, state and national politics, and many pursue an internship in Washington, D.C., or North Carolina's capital of Raleigh.
