How is NCSU depts in: economics, international relations, international studies, and political science? Is there a lot of resoucres and opportunities ( such as study abroad, interships in D.C) for these students etc...? Looking for a insight in these depts.

Also how difficult would it be to be accepted in the dual degree program, which allows one to major in economics and international relations?

According to this, this is no other way to major in economics and international relations/ studies/ political science?

They are pretty good programs! i am pretty sure that for International Studies you have to study abroad for a semester in order to graduate. with any of these majors you can study abroad in many of the locations that NC STATE offers. Internships are going to be a bit more difficult and competive since NC STATE is a science school and more internships are going to be in the sciences. but I am pretty that there are outside internships in all over the country and world. NC State also has this website (epack.com)where you can upload your resume and look for internships all over the country.
If you are looking to go to law school, each year previous students from NC STATE that has gone unto law schools in the NC (NC Central, Duke, UNC, etc.. come and talk about their experience and how they did it.

I am not sure about the Dual program but I know that it takes at least 5 years to complete especially if you want to do internships and etc... about the difficulty level, i think if you meet the requirements and did good in highschool then I think you are in good shape but I am pretty sure the most difficult part is staying in the program due to the requirements. if you can do it, then you will be in good shape for any grad school program.

Yea, i know alot about this because I had to do alot of research and listen to other students talk about this as part of my college requirement.
