Best schools for political science

Applying to College
1

<p>I wonder which are considered the best schools for a political science major, specifically in International Relations.</p>

<p>Also, on a practical level, what would this prepare the graduate for, aside from a job in government or academia? </p>

<p>Thanks for any insight.</p>

2

<p>Harvard is strong for political science studies, and Georgetown is strong in international relations studies.</p>

3

<p>GW and AU on a lower level, as well as Tufts and UChicago (primarily for poli sci, though).</p>

4

<p>most top schools have great political science programs, but, like silverturtle said, Georgetown School of Foreign Service (SFS) is very strong and particularly well known for its international relations.</p>

5
