which suny schools have good or the best political science programs? how is purchase’s specifically? I talked to a representative from their school and they said it was good but I want more input!! thank you
Binghamton has a strong program. However, this does not mean Purchase would be less than satisfactory.
My son is studying poli sci at Plattsburgh and is happy overall with the program, with the exception of one or two professors. It seems to have a good internship program, placing students in Albany or DC for a semester, although my son is not interested in pursuing that aspect.
Seems to me that resources at Purchase go more into the arts departments and facilities. Albany would be a better location for studying politics.
Albany is the best place for political science because of the capital location. I wouldn’t really recommend Bing for political science unless you want to do the PPL major. The professors and classes are very hit or miss.
