James Madison College provides a liberal education in public
affairs for undergraduates. This means, among other things,
that the primary activity as a faculty and staff is
undergraduate teaching. The College is dedicated to the
highest standards of excellence, both for the students and the
faculty and staff. The curriculum and individual courses are
multi-disciplinary, cultivating in the students skills of
rigorous thought, lucid prose writing, and articulate speech.
The residential environment nurtures a collegium of scholars
among students, faculty, and staff. The excellent resources of
the wider University enrich the program as a whole. James
Madison College established itself in 1967. Since then with an
enrollment of approximately 1000 students, the College has
graduated numerous Rhodes Scholars, Truman Scholars,
Marshall Scholars, Fulbright Scholars, National Science
Foundation Fellows and regularly represents a high
percentage of Michi gan S t a t e U n i v e r s i t y ' s P h i B e t a K a p p a
class.
I t s u n d e r g r a d u a t e p r o g r a m l e a d s t o a B a c h e l o r o f A r t s d egree in one of four fields of con cen tra tion: In ter na tional Re lations, Po liti cal Econ omy, Po liti cal The ory and Con sti tu tional
De moc racy, and So cial Re la tions. It of fers a rig or ous pro gram
with dis tinc tive at ten tion to writ ten work, ana lyti cal writ ing,
criti cal think ing, give- and- take class dis cus sion and col labo rative work. Stu dents have an op por tu nity to study how pub li c
is sues de velop and how the var ied pub li c and pri vate in sti tutions of so ci ety func tion, in the United States and glob ally.
The fac ulty of James Madi son College have been re cruited
from a number of inter- related fields: Ameri can stud ies, econom ics, his tory, so ci ol ogy, po liti cal sci ence and po liti cal theory. The College emphasizes teaching excellence,
individualized attention to students and scholarly research in
public affairs. Its courses are conducted as either lecturediscussion or collaborative classes in which student
participation is encouraged and often expected. A typical class
focuses on such issues as how globalization affects civil
society, or how theories of justice evolve into systems of laws,
or how a society's cultural and social values influence its
economic development. In short, the emphasis throughout the
program is on the dynamics of public affairs and public
decision making.
Competency in writing is strongly emphasized for all
students in James Madison College. In addition to a required
two semester First-year Writing Program, research papers
and other writing assignments have been incorporated into
the requirements for each of the fields of concentration and all
James Madison College courses.
The Col lege is an ex cel lent choice for any stu dents aim ing at
ca reers in gov ern ment, poli tics, ad mini stra tion, busi ness, foreign serv ice, or con sid er ing post- Baccalaureate stud ies: prelaw stu dents, stu dents plan ning to pur sue gradu ate study in
one of the so cial sci ence fields, busi ness and pub li c ad ministra tion. In cluded in the James Madi son Col lege pro gram is a
con cen trated jun ior or sen ior year Field Ex pe ri ence in which
students work for an agency of gove r n m e n t , a private
organization, non-profit organization, journalism or a
corporation. The full-time internship is intended to provide
students with the opportunity to connect their education to
the realm of practice. Placements are available throughout
the United States and internationally.
The total enrollment in James Madison College is
approximately 1000 students, so that the College is able to
provide a small college environment on the Michigan State
University campus. Faculty members devote a substantial
amount of time to individual student advisement; as a result,
programs of study are designed to satisfy the academic needs,
intellectual curiosity, and career goals of each student.
In addition, the home of the College is Case Residence Hall,
which includes not only the residence hall rooms of its oncampus students, but also faculty offices, classrooms, dining
facilities, a College library, seminar rooms, and a computer
laboratory. In the evenings, cultural programs, speakers,
presentations and other extracurricular events are regularly
scheduled. At the same time, the College's students are full

take approximately half their courses in other units of the
University and enjoy all benefits of living on a large, bountiful
campus.
Students admitted to Michigan State University are also
admissible to James Madison College. Enrollments in the
College are, however, limited. Prospective first year and
transfer students should notify the Michi gan State University
Office of Admissions and Scholarships as early as possible of
their desire to enroll in the College. Limited numbers of
currently enrolled Michigan State University students may
also be eligible to transfer into the College; such students are
encouraged to contact the Director of Admissions in the
College early in the Fall semester. Subject to space
availability, students may transfer into the College or from the
College to other programs until their junior year without
delaying completion of their degrees.
