The Associate in Arts in Political Science for Transfer Degree (AA-T) is designed for students planning to transfer into the political science major. Political Science is the study of politics using the skills of social scientific inquiry. Political inquiry examines the human use of power in relationships creating the structures operating human society. Inquiry into politics explores power in its myriad forms and consequences for people as individuals, in groups, and in society. This realm of psycho-socio-political inquiry is an integrated field of study drawing upon all the disciplines of the Social and Behavioral Sciences as well as in the Arts and Humanities. Upon completion of an AA-T in Political Science, persons have an increased capacity to: demonstrate an overall working knowledge of the principles of governance, demonstrably be able to utilize critical political thinking, and articulate an appreciation of how to apply what is learned in a manner useful in day to day life. This set of outcomes of learning enables students to become more effective citizens in the context of challenges faced by humans in the Modern World System. Successful completion of the program with a minimum G.P.A. of 2.0 affords students specific guarantees for transfer to the CSU system such as admission to a CSU with junior status, priority admission to their local CSU campus and to a program or major in political science or similar major. Students interested in the AA for transfer degree in political science should consult with the departmental faculty chair.
