Undergraduate Catalog 2024-2025
Public Policy and Service, BS
|
|
The interdisciplinary public policy and service major integrates coursework from public policy/administration and nonprofit studies. Courses in the major focus on the development, implementation, analysis and evaluation of policies that are relevant to the public good, including policies related to justice, equity and quality of life. Our unique interdisciplinary approach encourages students to specialize in a particular area of policy, through taking electives in environmental science, criminology and sociology, health administration, and more. The Public Policy and Service program is purposively designed to prepare students for careers in public policy, public administration, and non-profits.

3With approval from the PPS Director, students select two non-Political Science courses tailored to their particular interest. Select two from the following approved courses (we recommend but do not require that the two courses come from the same area): CJ 110 , CJ 310 , S/CJ 210 , S/CJ 218 , S/CJ 219 , S/CJ 220 , S/CJ 221 , SOC 110 , SOC 212 , SOC 212 , SOC 222 , SOC 224 , SOC 315 /WOMN 215 , SOC 317 , SOC 331 , HADM 110 , HADM 111 , HADM 112 , HADM 211 , HADM 212 , HADM 216 , HADM 312 , ECO 101 , ECO 153 , ECO 154 , ACC 251 , ACC 252 , ACC 253 , ACC 254 , BIOL 141 , BIOL 142 , CHEM 112 , CHEM 113 , CHS 112 , CHS 335 , and HPRO 210 .
4A student who takes one of the T/RS courses listed in the Third Year Fall Semester (above) will replace this GE Phil or T/RS with a free elective.
*The selection of a First Year Seminar is likely to fulfill requirements both for the First Year Seminar and a General Education Requirement. Thus, the First Year Seminar will not add to the total credits for the semester. Talk with an advisor in the Advising Center if you have any questions.
5Students may also apply PS 331 as the experimental learning requirement or as an elective.
