Political Science

The course of study at JGU provides you with a sound education in political science that covers all the key areas of the subject, while also giving you the opportunity to focus on your own particular areas of interest.

Studying Political Science at JGU therefore opens the door to a wealth of professional opportunities (see below) – the fields in which our alumni work are as diverse as the subject itself.

Political Science in Mainz focuses on theory-based empirical political research that combines detailed insights from established theories with the application of modern methods. Although the institute trains a large number of students, it preserves a personal touch with short lines of communication.
