Program Overview for Politics (BA) in Canada:

The focus of politics research is the pressing issues of our time and the potential to change them. Acadia offers courses to develop the analytical skills, theories, and knowledge needed to understand the power, culture, law, policy, and government in Canada and worldwide. Our courses are related to contemporary issues such as peace and war, environment, development, and media.

Acadia's politics department is small and tight, with a strong sense of community. In addition to small classes, the teachers also maintain an open policy and are always eager to help you succeed.
