Uniting Political Science and Sociology

Institute of Political Science and Sociology · University of Würzburg

Uniting two disciplines, the Institute of Political Science and Sociology is well equipped to face the challenges of the 21st century at a time when politics and society are more intertwined than ever before. Modern social-scientific courses lead to Bachelors, Masters as well as Teaching Degrees. Our programs can be combined with several fields of study.

Research at IPS and within its divisions is diverse. The University of Würzburg Graduate Schools offer additional mentorship for doctoral studies.
