A complex maze of challenges faces our world today, and most of the problems—economic, environmental, social, or health-related, just to name a few—are interconnected. Although many of the scientific, financial, and technical solutions to these problems already exist, the barriers to fixing them are often political. Studying political science opens up the whole world to you, giving you the tools you need to understand—and move—those barriers, and effect real change in the world.
