Courses

Attention: The faculty have decided that internships for PS 99 in Spring 2021 can be remote. Students will still need to meet all of the prerequisites and academic expectations that are normally in place for PS 99, with the addition of an acknowledgement form required prior to the start of some internships. If you have any questions about whether a particular internship is allowed, please contact your faculty advisor, or email PSStudent@tufts.edu.

Class Modalities (Definitions taken from the Registrar)
In-Person: On-campus students can register and complete this course but generally, fully remote students cannot register for this course. In some instances, there may be flexibility for fully remote students to register and complete the course; instructors of these courses have discretion over this possibility.
Virtual: All class activities will be online only, and all students—fully remote students and on-campus students—can register and complete the course.
Hybrid: The class will have both: i) virtual components and ii) in-person opportunities required of those students who are on campus, and all students, fully remote students and on-campus students, can register and complete the course.

PS 196: Independent Studies in Political Science are variable credit. This means that you have the option to choose from a variety of credit hours, and can fit an independent study more flexibly into your course schedule. For more information, please see this checklist, and ask your professors if you are interested in designing an independent study.
