A lot of the poli sci professiors have been nominated for teaching awards and are quite popular- supposedly good lectureres. JHU is one of the leading universities for Political Theory which is a very intellectual branch of poli sci. Course offerings are broad. Some SAIS professors come to the Baltimore campus to teach undergrad classes and JHU has a new gov center in DC where undergrads can study. There is no foreign language or economics requirements for poli sci majors, the way there are for International Studies majors. The lack of a core curriculum allows poli sci majors freedom to take several courses from many different departments and it’s easy to minor or double major in a different subject.
