  • Library Resources for POLS Majors

    As your Political Science Librarian and library liaison, students may contact me directly at fnsiloswai@uconn.edu to schedule one-on-one research consultations for course assignments, honors theses, capstones, literature reviews, and other scholarly projects. Research consultations are conducted either in person or online via Teams.

     Below are a few examples of what takes place:

    • Individual or small group research consultations tailored to your needs
    • Support for advanced database searching on various topics,  including public policy,
      relations, comparative politics, political theory, human rights, and so much more
    • Assistance identifying and locating government documents, primary sources, news sources, datasets, and access to hard-to-find materials
    • Guidance on citation management tools and research workflow strategies
    For more information, contact: Fyiane Nsilo-Swai at fnsiloswai@uconn.edu

Looking for internships or jobs in government? Check out negovjobs.com, a free regional job board built by a UConn professor that lists over 5,000 state and local government openings across New England and the Hudson Valley — including positions you won’t find on Indeed or Handshake. No login required, updated weekly, and great for anyone curious about a public-sector career.
