The Certificate in Foundations of Political Theory is a means of enhancing undergraduate education through a focused combination of courses, independent study, and program participation. Administered by the Political Science Department, the program is open to all Texas A&M University undergraduates, regardless of major.
If you are interested in gaining background for post-graduate studies in the law, social science, history, or political theory, or for a fulfilling career that builds on your analytical and expressive skills, this certificate program may be for you.
The program requires 18 hours of course work, including an introductory course in political theory and a capstone senior research course. It also requires frequent participation in program activities such as lectures and conferences. Participants in the certificate program may choose one of two areas of concentration: history of political theory, or analytic political theory.
Interested students are encouraged to enroll in the program as freshmen to avoid having to add extra hours to the degree program. Students are encouraged to meet with the undergraduate advisor as early as possible to plan their courses of study and to make sure that they have completed the appropriate prerequisite courses.
Certificate requirements are specified in a brochure available in the Department's Undergraduate Program Office or by viewing the following link: Certificate in Foundations of Political Theory
