 What is political science? Does it matter? From excess to clean drinking water, sanitation, toilets and sewers, 24-7 power supply, quality health care hospitals, quality education such as schools and colleges, to jobs. All these things are the consequence of politics. Thus ultimately political science matters. As George Orwell once rightly said, if people cannot write well, they cannot think well and if they cannot think well others will do their thinking for them. That is, political science teaches us how to think and participate in the service of the society. Because if we don't, others will do the thinking for us and they will influence the decision that governs your life. That is why we chose to pursue our master's degree in political science at Petal College. Come and be a part of the change that you want to see.
