Overview
Our Political Science program from The University of New Mexico dates back to 1969, when we began offering M.A. and Ph.D. degrees with subfield specializations in American politics, comparative politics, international relations and public policy. We subsequently added methodology to our subfield listing.
Our primary goals are to:
- Prepare students to be informed and effective citizens, policy makers, professionals, and scholars
- Produce new knowledge on substantively and theoretically important questions about politics, and to disseminate those findings through high visibility, peer-reviewed publications
