Political Economy

Our Mission

Department Mission Statement

The Department of Political Economy's mission is to both complement and supplement the College's mission of providing an excellent individualized liberal arts education that prepares students for the future by emphasizing the values and standards of judgment required for lifelong learning, personal development and community leadership by offering politics and economics courses taught from a perspective which incorporates related social science and humanities perspectives. Students are required to develop critical reasoning skills while recognizing the importance of economic, political, and philosophical principles in the process of developing a better understanding of how Western and non-Western societies interact with each other and provide for their material well-being. In order to best serve our students, we have developed two majors and minors: The Political Economy Major/Minor, and the International Political Economy Major/Minor.
