Being a student at Ohio State provides numerous opportunities for engagement and learning, both in the classroom and in the wider campus and Columbus areas. Beyond the classroom, you can find your niche in one of the more than 1,000 student organizations, take part in service learning and volunteer opportunities, or complete an internship at the State capitol or in your other areas of interest. Many political science students are active in clubs on campus, including the Collegiate Council of World Affairs and its Model UN teams that compete across the country, and our Mock Trial club that has made the national finals the last two years in a row. In addition, the Department of Political Science sponsors the student-run Journal of Politics and International Affairs, and affiliated clubs like the Alexander Hamilton Society, the College Democrats and the College Republicans bring prominent speakers to campus and host numerous events each year.
