Program description
Drew's international relations majors offer thought-provoking courses and a variety of experiential learning opportunities, such as the New York Semester on the United Nations, to investigate how competing global, regional, or domestic factors influence relations between state and non-state actors as they deal with an increasing number of global challenges and threats.
Political scientists examine how people govern themselves at all levels, from the smallest villages to the international system. The main political problems, whether in town halls, international forums, social movements, or the United Nations, are the same: how to balance individual desires and communal demands, freedom and equality, authority and justice, participation and power.
