The M.A.O. Program
The M.A.O. program is designed to be flexible according to students’ interests. Students in the M.A.O. program pursue a variety of careers, and the program gives students the opportunity for exposure in some of these fields. Our graduates have advanced to graduate schools and careers in
Journalism, Law, Business and to Ph.D. programs in political science,
other social sciences, and other graduate fields of study. Students in the M.A.O. program who wish to continue their political science studies toward a Ph.D. must formally apply to the Ph.D. program.
