Class Registration Tips for POLS Majors

Class registration for summer and fall begins for most students on March 28. As we move ahead, please remember the following in your planning: We strongly advise the PS majors take the following classes in the following years/semesters.

1. We typically advise everyone to take the writing course (POLS 2090) in their second (sophomore) year. It’s a good course to have as a base. By the way, you should also take it before the ENGL 2201.

2. Take POLS 3031 (methods) in the FALL of your JUNIOR year. (1) It’s only offered in the fall, and you need it to take 3032 if you are a POLS BS major.

3. POLS 3032 should be taken in the SPRING of your JUNIOR year. It’s ONLY offered in the spring. If you wait to take these courses when you’re a senior, and, heaven forbid you fail them, you will obviously have more trouble finishing your degree on time – because both 3031 and 3032 are required courses.
