State of Florida Common Course Prerequisites

The State of Florida has identified common course prerequisites for this University degree program. These prerequisites are lower-level courses that are required for preparation for the University major prior to a student receiving a baccalaureate degree from The Florida State University. They may be taken either at a community college or in a university lower-division program. It is preferred that these common course prerequisites be completed in the freshman and sophomore years.

The following lists the common course prerequisites or approved substitutions necessary for this degree program:

1. Two introductory courses (six [6] semester hours) in political science with the POS, INR or CPO prefix.

Requirements for a Major in Political Science

A political science major consists of thirty (30) semester hours in political science with a grade of "C–" or better in each course, with the following restrictions:

• at least twenty-one (21) semester hours in courses numbered 3000 and above;
• at least twenty-one (21) semester hours in an assembled classroom (as distinguished from individual credit for honors, directed studies, and internships); and
• at least twelve (12) semester hours in an assembled classroom at The Florida State University (including the study abroad program).

The political science program includes six subfields of study: American government (course prefix is POS), comparative politics (CPO), international relations (INR), political theory (POT; PHM 2300, PHM 3331r and PHM 4340r can be counted as POT courses), public policy (PUP), and public administration (PAD) PAD courses are listed under the School of Public Administration. Interdisciplinary social science courses (ISS) may count as political science courses if the instructor is a faculty member in political science. The instructor will stipulate the political science subfield for which the course should be counted.

Majors must take at least three introductory courses, choosing from: CPO 2002, INR 2002, POS 1041, POS 2001, PUP 3002, PAD 3003, and either POT 3003 or PHM 2300 (but not both). Note: CPO 2002, INR 2002, POS 1041, and PUP 3002 are prerequisites to most of the upper-level courses in their respective subfields.

Majors also must take at least six (6) semester hours in any three subfields. The introductory courses listed above can be counted toward this subfield requirement.

POS 3713, Understanding Political Science Research is required of all majors.

Political science majors are required to have a minor or second major and to meet the requirements stipulated by that department or program. Public administration is not permitted as a minor because classes in that area count toward the political science major.

Honors in the Major

The department offers a program of honors in the major to encourage qualified juniors and seniors to undertake independent and original research as part of the undergraduate experience. For requirements and other information, see the "University Honors Program and Honor Societies" section of this General Bulletin.

Internships

An optional internship in political science is designed to allow students to earn up to six (6) semester hours of credit in political science while also garnering practical experience in government and politics. The prerequisites for internship are: completion of at least sixty (60) semester hours; completion of fifteen (15) semester hours in political science with a "C–" or better, including POS 3713; a grade point average of 3.0 overall in political science courses; permission from the internship director.

For complete details interested students should contact the department.

Requirements for a Minor in Political Science

Students majoring in other departments or programs may minor in political science with fifteen (15) semester hours of political science with grades of "C–" or better. A maximum of six (6) semester hours of PAD and PHM prefixes combined may be counted toward the minor. At least nine (9) semester hours must be at the 3000 level or above, and at least six (6) of those must be earned at The Florida State University.
