Political Science Department

 

We empower others to understand and to engage constructively with institutions, societies, families, and people, enabling all to realize their divine potential.

As disciple-scholars, we apply spiritual principles, sound reason, and scientific evidence in pursuit of the "good and safety of society" (D&C 134). We teach, mentor, research, deliberate, serve, and communicate to improve the character and lives of God's children around the world through the rigorous study of political institutions, behavior, and values.
