Study Abroad

Have you considered spending a semester or part of a summer abroad? Learning in a new context can help you broaden your perspectives, which is especially beneficial to political science and international studies majors. USC provides these enriching experiences to its undergraduates, and the Department of Political Science is offering more of these opportunities as well. To learn more, visit the Study Abroad Office.

The Maymester trip provided the greatest classroom to learn about law and government. Being immersed in the culture and politics of the countries which we were studying allowed me to fully understand the importance of these institutions. I learned about reaching beyond boundaries to discover new places, people and ways of life.
