Course Information

Description

The Government Sophomore Tutorial takes an innovative approach to introducing sophomores to research in political science. Students will choose a section in a topic of interest while building on a common curriculum of learning how to research and write a research paper. In addition, writing workshops and sessions on learning research methods will be held throughout the semester.

 

Class Notes

Government 97 meets once a week in small tutorials. For Spring 2027, all tutorials will meet either Mondays, 3-5pm, or Tuesdays, 9:45-11:45am. Students who wish to enroll in Gov 97 must be free during at least one of those time slots in order to take the class. During preterm registration (November 4-18, 2026), students should sign up for the untimed placeholder section.
