Message from the Dept. Chair

Dear Political Science Majors,

Our website strives to give you the information that you’ll need to have a successful career at San Jose State University. Within our site you will find information about the classes we offer, our faculty, and special programs. Below are a few highlights we would like to share about the department:

• We manage one of the best internship programs in the state. Hundreds of our department’s alums currently work in state, local and national government as well as in a host of related non-profit agencies. For further information please see Dr. Terry Christensen.
• We also host Pi Sigma Alpha, the political science honor society. Pi Sigma Alpha is open to all Political Science majors. For further information on the this honor society please contact Dr. Lawrence Quill.
• Our MPA program has just recently formed a student association, which holds a series of professional and social events to keep its students connected, for further information please contact Dr. Frances Edwards.

We hope you will find this website useful, but if ever you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me or any other faculty member for assistance. Information about faculty members may be found on the faculty page.

Dr. James Brent
