Political science is normally divided into four separate fields with public policy sometimes considered a fifth separate unit. This text argues that because each of these four fields - political theory, American government, international relations, and comparative government - is centrally concerned with governance, public policy issues should be integrated throughout the political science curriculum. The author utilizes original data to support his contentions and develops a pedagogical concern with examining the integration of policy substance into curricular planning and relevant teaching procedures. These teaching procedures include: creating a sound policy curriculum, developing a course in policy analysis methodology and software that can be used for teaching both policy analysis and policy substance.
