Welcome to Political Science Advising and Pre-Law Advising!
Good advising is essential for getting a good education and our advisors are dedicated to helping you navigate Rutgers and prepare for life after Rutgers. We can help you with the major or minor in Political Science, the minors in Critical Intelligence Studies and Government & Business, and in helping you prepare for law school.
The Undergraduate Advisor for the Political Science Department at Rutgers University, New Brunswick is Dr. Christine Cahill. Dr. Cahill can answer questions about the political science major, minors, and certificate programs. You can sign up for an appointment at calendly.com/ccahill_officehours. Please reach out to her directly at c.cahill@rutgers.edu if none of the appointment times work for you.
