The Rockefeller College of Public Affairs & Policy offers two undergraduate majors: Political Science and Public Policy and Management. In addition, students may pursue graduate course work in either political science or public administration as part of a combined degree program (a B.A./M.A. in Political Science or a B.A./M.P.A. program in Public Administration). In each of these programs, students can apply a portion of their credits in graduate work to both their undergraduate and graduate degrees, earning either a Bachelor of Arts degree in Public Policy or a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science and a Master’s of Political Science or Public Administration in 11 semesters.

All undergraduate courses offered by the Rockefeller College, except R PAD 110, 111, 210, 211, 380, 381, 480, and 481 are considered liberal arts and sciences courses for purposes of degree requirements.
