Dr. Dlynn Armstrong-Williams
Department of Political Science
and Criminal Justice
Welcome to my web page. I teach political science at North Georgia College and State University. I received my Bachelor of Arts degree with an international business minor from Clarion University of Pennsylvania. Following my Bachelor's Degree I attended Miami University of Ohio where I received both my Masters Degree and my PhD. My areas of concentration in my doctoral work were: Comparative Foreign Policy, International Relations Theory, Comparative Politics, and East Asian studies.
This page is set up to be a reference for political science students, as well as others who are interested in world affairs.
Are you interested in the world around you? Do you find the struggle for power between states intriguing? Do you think citizenship an important skill for everyone? (Or, have you always dreamed of being a character in a James Bond movie bent on world domination?)
If you answered the first three questions in the affirmative then CONGRATULATIONS! You are a perfect candidate for a political science major!
If you answered the fourth question in the affirmative--sorry, we do not teach all of the tools necessary for world domination.
If you are interested in more information about political science at NGCSU contact our departmental web page. For more information about a career in political science, (click here).

If you are looking for information about the United
States government, click here: 
Also this page can provide you some assistance if you are looking for general political science information.
Richard Kimber's web page is also a great source of important political science links.
Part of educating students for the future era of globalization is exposing them to politics at an international level. The following links are divided into geographic areas to assist your understanding of global politics.
Asia links 
Europe links
North American and Central American links other
than the United States (Canada and Mexico) 
Middle East links 
Africa links 
Another area of my interest is global security. If you are interested in security related sites please click here.
International Organizations also play a vital role in global politics.
I am also the faculty advisor for the Model United Nations group here on campus. The Model United Nations is a team of NGCSU students that compete in national and regional competitions. The team represents the perspective of a country and discusses major issues such as human rights, space exploration, and disarmament from the viewpoint of their state. This allows them to increase their knowledge of international affairs, and to broaden their exposure to other cultures. Their activities at the conferences as well as their actions on this campus help to show NGCSU students a world beyond Georgia and the United States.
