Uraian Tempat

The politics department prepares students for careers in governmental and nongovernmental service, policy analysis, journalism, law, business and education. It is self-consciously a department of "politics"; that is, a department that seeks to encourage students to investigate important real-world problems. The undergraduate curriculum aims to develop the knowledge necessary for the engaged analysis of political theories, institutions and conflicts throughout history and worldwide. The graduate program in political science is distinguished by methodological emphasis on analytical case study, including comparative case study rather than abstract mathematical modeling or statistical analysis.

Brandeis residence halls bring students all the comforts of home. Each hall in the North and Massell quads, where the majority of first-year students live, features: lounges to foster socialization, study-group opportunities and programming; large community space with a big-screen TV and billiards and foosball tables; kitchen facilities equipped with community refrigerator, stove/oven, microwave and counter space and laundry facilities. More than 85 percent of undergraduate students live in residence halls. As with all indoor space at the university, residence halls are smoke-free. First-year students are assigned to double rooms or lofted tripled rooms on corridors with shared bathrooms. The university accepts requests but cannot promise to assign entering students to specific roommates or honor requests for assignment with another student with a particular religious or cultural background. Returning students choose accommodations through a housing selection process held each spring. With the exception of the entering midyear class, incoming students are guaranteed four consecutive semesters of on-campus living. For the purposes of room selection, the midyear class is considered a part of the rising sophomore class and is guaranteed three consecutive semesters of on-campus living. In recent years, upper-class students not housed through the lottery found off-campus housing or were eventually accommodated on campus through a waiting list process. Entering transfer students are admitted with the understanding that they may not be eligible for on-campus housing.
