Students will work on their own research projects.

The comprehensive exercise is a substantial (approximately 25-30 page) research paper on a topic within American Politics, Comparative Politics, International Relations, Political Theory, and Public Policy. The student should have completed a 300-level POSC course.

The students must also prepare a poster based on their comps paper for presentation in a group forum.
