Bachelor in Political Science and Public Administration

Tuition fees for Bachelor in Political Science and Public Administration are 4,500 USD per year.

Political Science and Public Administration examines how political systems, governments, and public institutions function, combining the study of political theory, comparative politics, and international relations with the practical administration of public policy. Typical coursework includes constitutional law, public policy analysis, political theory, comparative government, public finance, organizational behavior, and research methods, often supplemented by internships in public agencies or nongovernmental organizations. Students develop analytical skills for evaluating policy decisions, understanding institutional structures, and assessing the relationship between citizens, governments, and international actors. Graduates pursue careers in public administration, government agencies, diplomatic services, nonprofit management, policy research, and international organizations, and the degree also provides a foundation for graduate study in law, public policy, or political science. This bachelor's program runs 4 years and is delivered in English at Istanbul Medipol University, located in İstanbul, Turkey. The program draws on Turkey's position at the intersection of European and Middle Eastern affairs, giving students exposure to regional and global political dynamics alongside core administrative theory. Across the 4-year curriculum, students move from introductory courses in political theory and public administration toward more specialized study of policy formulation, governance, and international relations. The English-medium instruction allows international students to engage directly with global political science literature while studying in an urban setting with strong connections to regional institutions. The combination of theoretical grounding and applied administrative training equips graduates for entry-level roles in the public and nonprofit sectors as well as further academic study.
