"From the moment I stepped onto campus, every professor, staff member, and student I encountered treated me with such genuine warmth and respect, as if I were already a valued member of their community. Despite not having officially joined the EIU family, I immediately felt a deep sense of belonging. The atmosphere was one of comfort and inclusivity, where everyone seemed genuinely invested in my success and well-being."Abbey McCordPolitical Science | Class of 2025
The Political Science minor shows employers and graduate schools that you understand key concepts in the study of government, politics, public administration and public policy. It is a fit if you are a political junkie who wants to learn how the political world works, and it works especially well with majors in business, criminal justice, communications, education, health, humanities and social sciences.
