The Government major prepares students to be outstanding public servants, whether in foreign policy, domestic policy, the academic sphere, or the intelligence community. Each government track gives students a strong emphasis on classical learning and their core government classes and hands-on training in their field of interest. Students also develop a Biblical understanding of their field and how to work in it. What are Tracks? Within the Government major, students have a measure of flexibility to craft their course work to their specific academic interests. Most broadly, the general Government major allows students to choose 12 credits in a variety of Government disciplines. Many students choose a specific discipline within Government in which to specialize. These specializations are called tracks. Each track has specific upper-division courses tailored to provide the student with a sound understanding and appreciation of government, politics, and policy, theory, or strategic intelligence. Combining this with the apprenticeship opportunities, students are well prepared to enter public service, non-profit organizations, think tanks, or graduate and professional schools.
