constantbo Posted January 7, 2016 Posted January 7, 2016 As far as I know, political science is relatively different from policy or public administration. The latter emphasizes particularly on economical analysis of policies, while political science focuses on the institutions' behaviors. So you'd better make clear which is your real interests and apply to the right program with a matching SOP.
