The mission of the Department of Political Sciences is to provide a solid, open-minded curriculum that exposes students to the principal sub-fields of the Political Science field. The Department works constantly to encourage students to be nationally and globally aware through researching, reading and participating in Study Abroad Programmes and to be good readers and analysers of events, whether on the Palestinian level or Regional and Global level.
