Institute of Public Opinion
Learn more about Muhlenberg's highly-regarded scientific-based research institute related to public opinion at the local, state and national levels.
Muhlenberg’s political science department seeks to educate and illuminate beyond the student body. Our highly-engaged faculty lead a number of on-campus programs, organizations and event series that invite the campus community—and oftentimes general public—to engage, discuss, debate and learn.
The field of political science is a dynamic and living one and current events shape it everyday. In order to reflect this, our department marks significant newsworthy developments with speakers or roundtable discussions around current events.
