The discipline of Political Science examines the relationship of
government to other institutions, other nations, and to the people of our
country. Sub-disciplines include International Relations, American

Political Scientists analyze those procedures and individuals involved in
running our country and creating our laws, making our history, and helping
to ensure our safety and prosperity. Opportunities exist in the
Federal Civil Service, Homeland Security, Armed Forces, and Foreign
service, or by participating in the making of laws and the legal
profession. An excellent source of information about the field of
Political Science is the website of the American Political Science
Association.
