Why study political science?

Good Colleges To Study Political Science?

• I was considering attending NYU, to study political science, i understand that they have a distinguished Political science program, and i plan to major in poly-sci. At any rate i began to consider internship opportunities, what colleges have a distinguished poly-sci program, and a good opportunity for internships. I plan to run for senate, as i am an active supporter of the democratic party. I would be very interested in any opportunity to intern for a democratic office.
