What if I don’t have prerequisite courses in American government, microeconomics, or statistics?
Students without the prerequisites can be admitted to the program and can then take the prerequisite courses early in their course work. Students who do not have two courses in Political Science, including one course in American government or public policy, can meet the requirement by taking either PA 507 Public Policy Process or PA508 Government and Public Administration. PA 507 is a three credit-hour course; PA508 is a 1 credit-hour course available through Distance Education (http://distance.ncsu.edu/index.html). PA 507, PA 508 and graduate courses in statistics or economics (400-level or above) can both satisfy the prerequisite and be included as part of the 40 credit hours of graduate work.
