Our department is the top ranked department of political science of its size in Canada. Our faculty have been nationally and internationally recognized through numerous prestigious awards including Fulbright, Killam and Trudeau fellowships. Three of our faculty have won distinguished scholar awards from the leading professional association, the International Studies Association. Seven of our faculty members have won awards for excellence in research, teaching or service from the University. From civil unrest in the Middle East to international trade negotiations, today’s political landscape is complex. Learn how to navigate (and shape) that terrain with a Political Science degree from Waterloo. Investigate a wide range of topics, or dive deep with a specialization in Canadian Politics, Global Governance, International Relations, or Politics and Business. Either way, you’ll hone your analytical, writing, critical thinking, and research skills in a mix of lectures, seminars, and workshops. You’ll also get an insiders’ perspective, studying with top scholars involved in current international policy debates.
