Welcome to Political Science at the University of Connecticut
In our time, the Nobel-Prize-winning German author Thomas Mann once wrote, human destiny presents its meaning in political terms. All the questions that I listed above are dealt with through the political process. We in the Political Science Department at the University of Connecticut are dedicated to understanding how the political process determines our common future. Through our undergraduate program, we hope to provide students with the facts and concepts that will enable them to be active and constructive citizens. Through our graduate program, we aspire to educate future scholars in not only the tools of their trade, but also a broader understanding of how the political process works and should work. The faculty are all involved in research programs that enlighten the worldwide community of scholars and make us better teachers as well. Whatever your reason for visiting our home page, I want to extend my welcome on behalf of the entire department. ~Howard Reiter Prof. Howard L. Reiter Jennifer Fontanella Prof. J.
