Political Science provides core reading experiences allowing one to call bulloney on many public ideas, and to elucidate truths needed by many unaware they need them. Debate and decision-making skills are so rare that literate logic leveraging is a valuable skill that can command considerable compensation -- and deservedly so.
I got a degree in this because I heard it had a wide variety of jobs within the field, and I really enjoyed my hs government class. I graduated on Christmas Eve 2018 due to my international studies major. Yes, I dual majored in poli sci and int studies. I have pursued roles in federal, state, and city government. I have pursued roles in every arm of the private branch, too. It is September of 2024 as I write this. I have had ONE interview in all that time for a piss poor salary for a piss poor npo that had no growth potential. Im a supervisor at a small custodial company now. I'll never own a home or start a family. Make damn fucking sure youre going into a high pay and employable field. Im 100k in debt with no way out and no job prospects.
So I just switched my Major too political science and I’m really excited because I wanted to do it in the spring ( I’m a sophomore) but I wanted to give the major that I’m in another chance uhhhh no political science is definitely more of my speed I wanted to be an activist for the disabled community and work for the gov or maybe become President of the U.S one day!
Trust me you need to do internships because there aren’t many opportunities without a master’s or experience. Whatever field in polisci you’re going in find an internship in that field.
Don't do it. I have a BA in poli sci with a concentration in public policy and a minor in German. 10 years later I work as an administrative assistant and the degree lead to no job opportunities. Get into a major that teaches you hard skills and less theory. Unless you want to become a lawyer poli sci is a bit useless in the real world. I know a lot but employers want to see hard skills only they don't care for consultation work anymore.
So, you mentioned something about advocacy groups if I’m not mistaken. if I wanted to become part of an advocacy group for those with disabilities/autism, what direction should I take and does it require a masters, a bachelors, a Ph.D or Doctorate?
Can I do job in different country as a political scientist. I mean, After earning a bachelor's degree from one country and Master's degree from another university in another country, so whether can I go on to another (3rd) country for job or if I should remain in the same country where from I got my MA? ❗❗❗❗❗
I want to do teaching in primary school but how I define in the interview that why I have done Masters in Political Science.... actually I am not interested in political Science but interested in teaching
This comment section is depressing. Is Poly Sci really that bad? Or are some of you poly sci graduates just terrible at interviewing, attending networking functions and marketing yourself properly. Serious question.
Well i'm 30yrs and i just developed love to study political science and i know nothing about the field, is it good idea to juggle in the course considering my age?
Guys this degree is useless dont pursue this degree if youre not planning to be a lawyer. I beg you guys not to choose this degree, and this is coming from someone who just graduated with a political science degree.
