Honors in Political Science

Qualified political science majors may graduate with honors in political science. This program honors students who achieve academic excellence in their studies and who successfully complete additional training in a special topics research seminar (PLSC 395).

PLSC 395 is a course offered each spring. Admission requires a 3.7 GPA overall and in political science. Admitted students may register for PLSC 395 in the spring semester of their junior or senior year provided they have successfully completed seven political science classes (21 credit hours). The Honors Seminar will not count toward the 33 credit hours required for a political science major or as one of the required subfield courses.

For more information about the Political Science Honors Program, please contact Professor David Doherty (ddoherty@luc.edu). 

PLSC 395 class is available to students who have been admitted to the Political Science Honors Program.  Registration is by permission only.
