The Department of Government is more than just a place for you to acquire an education about government.  This is a department that is not only academically rigorous and intellectually challenging, but also one that wants to educate students to be discerning Christian thinkers, ardent defenders of truth and justice, and lovers of wisdom in all things political.

Our students come from all over the United States and share a deep zeal not only to make a powerful difference in their own spheres of influence but also to do so with discernment and wisdom.  The Department of Government educates its students to think and to act as Christian leaders.

The Department of Government is one of Regent Undergrad’s newest academic programs.  In existence for barely over one year, the Department originally started as a Political Science department offering a Bachelor of Science in Political Science.  After an extensive program review in 2006, the Department received approval for a name change as well as to offer a Bachelor of Arts in Government beginning in 2007.  This is an exciting step for the Department, one that will provide tremendous benefits to current and future students.

The Department continues to experience steady growth.  Its course offerings, talented faculty, and Christian vision attract talented and passionate students.   Future strategies for course offerings, cutting-edge programs, and exciting intellectual and curricular experiences will continue to attract future leaders to change the world. 

Join us for a tremendous, challenging, and life-changing educational experience.
