Political Science
University of Wisconsin-Whitewater Campus, United States
Career fields related to political science are growing faster than ever. Over the next decade, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that employment opportunities are expected to increase by 6% for arbitrators, mediators, and conciliators, and by 4% for urban and regional planners. The Political Science department at UW-Whitewater offers several standout programs, from majors to minors to certificates. The analytical, written and oral communication, and critical thinking skills gained in a political science degree program serve as solid preparation for many more career paths as well as for graduate study and law school. Teaching middle and high school students how our government and legal system works — and how it fits into the context of our everyday lives — is rewarding. UW-Whitewater can prepare you for teacher certification in political science. Many Warhawks take their careers in political science into office: They’ve served the state of Wisconsin and the United States through various elected and appointed positions, including various state representatives and senators, U.S. congress members, speakers of the Wisconsin State Assembly, chief of staff to the president of the United States, and the U.S. Ambassador to Norway. UW-Whitewater international students serve in their countries of origin, too, such as a minister of public works and transportation in Cyprus and a member of parliament in Turkey.
