The CU Political Science Department provides students with a rigorous education and conducts influential research in all subfields of the discipline. Our undergraduate program follows a learning-by-doing curriculum that gives students opportunities for hands-on, applied learning. These opportunities include our STUDIO Research Lab, the Colorado Political Climate Survey, and many more. In the past four years alone, we have graduated two Rhodes Scholars and three Truman Scholars. Our graduate program trains Ph.D. students for the academic market, and recent graduates have secured tenure-track jobs at Harvard University, University of Chicago, University of Iowa, University of New Mexico, Essex University, and more. Finally, our faculty are renowned leaders and scholars at the top of their respective fields. Members of our department have won five best-book awards since 2018, and two of our faculty members are Deans at CU.
