the politics major

Politics is the study of man in communities and deliberation about how best to order man’s social existence. The main objective of Ave Maria University’s Politics major is to advance students’ critical understanding of the nature and purpose of political life. Students are presented with differing theoretical perspectives from which to understand and assess certain perennial political problems.
