Braniff Graduate School

The highest mission of the Department of Politics is to teach the students to examine politics from the comprehensive perspective of political philosophy. Through its course of study, it also seeks to educate its students for leadership in public affairs. The graduate programs of the Department reflect these dual emphases. It offers a Ph.D., through the Willmoore Kendall Program in Politics of the Institute of Philosophic Studies, and either a Master of Arts in Politics or a Master in Politics.
