What is the GPSS?

The Graduate Political Science Society (GPSS) was established to provide a voice for graduate students in the political science program and enhance the graduate experience through the programming of academic events and social activities. The GPSS also provides auxiliary student advising and student advocacy capacities.

Masters and Doctoral students in the Political Science program are automatically considered members of the GPSS. A copy of the GPSS' constitution can be downloaded here.

 

Mission Statement

The Graduate Political Science Society was established to foster cooperation in the pursuit of academic research interests, to advocate on behalf of the student body in liaison with the Department of Public and International Affairs, and to organize academic and social events. The intent of the GPSS is to be an integral part of the graduate program by providing support to both new and current students in order to facilitate a more integrated and comprehensive graduate experience.
