Georgetown University MA in American Government Program

Georgetown University MA in American Government Program Georgetown's MAAG program engages highly motivated and talented students who wish to move on to careers in government, politics, or further academic study!

Combining theoretical insight with practical application, the Georgetown Master of Arts Program in American Government offers its highly talented and select students a rich, stimulating environment in which to understand the nature of American politics, to see it in action and to participate in the political and/or governmental system. This accelerated, 12-month program draws on its setting in the

nation’s capital and the strengths of Georgetown University’s Department of Government. The program benefits from the strength of the faculty of the American Government subfield. Through courses on institutions of government (Congress, the presidency, the bureaucracy and the judiciary), electoral politics, political behavior, public opinion, media studies, political parties, public policy, psychology and politics and quantitative methods, students gain the substantive knowledge and theoretical frameworks needed to understand and to become involved in the operations of American government and politics. The program’s required practicum experience provides students with a hands-on, real-world professional experience within the nation’s capital.
