Research Opportunities

The Master鈥檚 program in Political Science offers opportunities for students to partake in various aspects of scholarly research. Fellowship students, working as research assistants, become closely involved in the faculty's research projects and sometimes co-author conference papers or journal articles. The department runs a faculty research workshop to which all students are invited. The university also offers summer research fellowships, and assists students in presenting their work at conferences. The Political Science Department regularly forwards announcements about lectures and conferences that occur at Temple University, University of Pennsylvania, the Constitution Center and other research-oriented institutions located in and around Philadelphia. In short, for highly motivated students, there are ample scholarly opportunities to enrich their studies outside the classroom.
