Master of Arts in Political Science - Thesis

University of Windsor

The Political Science department offers two exciting paths to pursue graduate work: an M.A. degree, which can generally be completed in one calendar year (September to September) through the completion of courses and either a major research paper or a master's thesis and the M.A. internship option that combines the M.A. coursework with a 6-month paid internship and valuable hands-on work experience.The Department is committed to providing funding packages that match or beat those of other MA programs.The department currently has over a dozen full-time faculty members, all of whom are actively engaged in research. Joining the M.A. program will give you the opportunity to participate in and learn from the wide array of research undertaken by our faculty. You can learn more about individual faculty members and their ongoing research from the bios listed on our faculty page.The department is also home to two major research centres: the Jerusalem Old City Initiative and the Cross-Border Institute. Several graduate students have worked with the Jerusalem Old City Initiative since its inception, and have participated in high-level meetings and ongoing research projects tied to Track II diplomatic efforts centered on the status of Jerusalem.
