匹茲堡大學布拉德福德分校

Our program is a unique program combining American History, World History, American Politics and International Politics. You cannot understand politics unless you understand the history of culture, economics, environment, ethnicity, conflict and development. Politics and political institutions influence everything we as individuals, families and communities aspire for and the problems we seek to overcome.

As a history/political science student you will be encouraged to participate in one of the many internship possibilities available in the area - city hall, county legislature, local historical societies and museums, and many civic organizations. You will also be encouraged to look outside the area to Harrisburg or Washington, D.C.
