Courses

Besides taking courses related to international relations, you're also free to choose from all our Political Science electives that are part of our general Political Science program and our Pre--Law Concentration.  Indeed, most students in all three of the Political Science programs in our department have decided to take courses across all three main subject areas in our department by the time they graduate.

Here's a full list of our department's courses, which covers all three programs in our department.  A "(G)" after the course number indicates the course can also be taken for graduate credit.  Visit UL's course catalog to read more detailed descriptions of the courses. Also remember that not every course is offered every semester, so be sure to check the upcoming schedule of classes when you sign up for your next semester's classes during each regular advising session.
