Associate of Arts Degree In Political Science

Political Science is a multi-faceted discipline covering many areas of specialization. While students can choose from a wide variety of first and second-year political science courses at Langara College, they will develop a common set of skills designed to enable them to gain an enriched appreciation of the complexity of political life, while developing an enhanced ability to think critically about the world in which we live. With the informed perspectives that the discipline gives us, we are better able to make decisions when we vote and when we advocate for ourselves and others. Political science courses at Langara are also intended to provide a preparation for subsequent courses at the senior undergraduate level which build and reinforce levels of experience gained at this stage.
