Online Political Science Degree Program Overview

Politically charged and civically engaged, New Hampshire has a seat at the head of the election table with the first-in-the-nation primary. From this position, Southern New Hampshire University's Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Political Science can give you a unique perspective on the relationship between the U.S. political system, public perception and the policies that shape government.

The online political science degree program takes a practical approach to politics, analyzing events in real time and applying solutions to local, national and international scenarios. You'll explore political questions, tactics and strategies from many perspectives while you develop the critical thinking and communication skills you need to succeed in the political arena.

“Southern New Hampshire University’s online political science program is not just for those seeking a career in politics," said Rob Mellen Jr., PhD, political science faculty at SNHU. "It is a program designed to help students think critically about the issues facing them in contemporary society through the consideration and analysis of multiple policy options."

In the online political science BA program, you’ll develop a pragmatic and comprehensive understanding of the U.S. political system with a special emphasis on ethical and empathetic civic engagement.

Learn how to:

• Understand major components of political systems
• Analyze a wide range of current and historical political issues
• Apply effective research skills using primary and secondary resources
• Communicate to various audiences effectively
• Promote active citizenship and engagement in public service using civic discourse

Career Outlook

In the online political science degree program, you'll learn to analyze policy and politics on local, national and global scales. By building and refining analysis and communication skills, you can plan for a career in advocacy, campaign strategy and development, government, public policy, statistical analysis and beyond.

Here are a few roles you might seek upon graduating from the political science degree program:

• Campaign manager. United by a common cause, you'll manage the people and operations necessary to win a candidate an election or pass legislation your organization believes in.
• Fundraising coordinator. Raise money for a cause you believe in. You'll help plan and direct campaigns while gaining supporters and funds to help spread awareness and make legislative change.
• Legislative assistant. Assist legislators by providing administrative, communication and research support. You'll help create policy drafts, track legislation and conduct research on legislative issues.
• Lobbyist. Use your knowledge – and charisma – to persuade legislators in support or opposition of bills. From local civic groups to massive worldwide corporations, lobbyists are used to promote organizations' agendas.
• Public relations specialist. Manage the public image of people, businesses, government and nonprofit organizations. You'll interact with the media, craft speeches, organize events and build social media campaigns.

Political involvement on the local level is important, but often lacking. If you have good ideas and a strong network in your area, running for local or state representation could be worth pursuing. Some options include:

• City councilor
• County commissioner
• School board member
• State assembly person
• State senator
