The disciplines of Political Science and International Studies (PSIS) aim to explore complex political and social phenomena, as well as to facilitate collaboration among community members by nurturing a spirit of public service. The main courses of PSIS focus on nurturing critical thinking, active agenda-setting, and problem-solving. Furthermore, their curricula analyze the multi-level dynamics among humans, society, and international relations. Specifically, courses in PSIS include the topics of security, gender, and environment, and seek solutions to various social and political challenges.
