The vision of the Colorado Christian University Politics department is to form graduates who will think as free Christians, live as responsible citizens of our Republic, and embark on a lifetime task of statesmanship. To implement this vision, the Politics program educates Christian students in a broad understanding of the art and science of politics, based on a biblical foundation and worldview; trains them to apply biblical knowledge, Christian virtues, and ethical principles to politics; and helps them to develop entry-level professional skills necessary for success in politics and related fields.

The study of Politics at Colorado Christian University deliberately combines philosophic breadth and theological insight with practical relevance. Students explore human nature and ethics along with political and economic power and history. They are led to grapple with the meaning and significance of the American Founding, with the relation of virtue and liberty to the rule of law and human happiness, with America’s role in the world, and with the current political landscape.

The Politics major at Colorado Christian University is designed to prepare students for a number of careers, including those of public service, justice, and political consulting. Students will also be prepared for graduate school or law school. The major doubles easily with other majors such as Business, Communications, Global Studies, History, or Psychology. 

The Bachelor of Arts in Politics requires completion of the following 120 credits:
General Education Core (48 credit hours)
Politics Major Core (36 credit hours)
Electives (36 credit hours)
