Career opportunities

A degree in politics is ideal preparation for careers in many fields: business, education, journalism, government, nonprofit organizations, and law. Or, the political field itself, whether that means running for office, working as a staffer or campaign manager, crafting political messaging, or covering the field as a journalist. With a serious list of career credentials, our alumni include a staff attorney at the U.S. Department of Education Office of Civil Rights; a judge who sits on the Georgia Court of Appeals; a Georgia State Representative; District Counsel for the U.S. Small Business Administration; Chief Assistant Attorney for the Public Defender’s Office; and a number of partners and practicing attorneys at high-profile law firms across the country.
