The Specialized Honours BA program in Global Political Studies (GPS) provides students with the skills required to analyze global political forces, as well as giving them a broad and liberal education. The GPS program provides an excellent background for future public service work abroad. As well, the GPS program is useful for anyone who hopes to find private sector employment dealing with international issues, or for anyone who hopes to pursue graduate studies in international relations or comparative world politics.

Students may wish to specialize in areas such as development studies, post-communist studies, area studies, peace and security, or international political economy for the purposes of preparing for graduate school or for a particular employment goal. These students should consult the program coordinator to seek advice about appropriate course selection.
