Hello

Aristotle was the one who said that Political science is the master science. He is regarded as the father of Political Science because of his far reaching and permanent contribution to the field of politics.

He called politics as the master science because according to him, all branches of human activity depend on it. It is an understanding of our own society and the world around us. It determines the environment within which every person will organize his life.

Hello,

I think you are confused or misunderstood some concepts. Political Science is a stream which can be pursued by Under Graduate course like BSc. If any student after graduation from Political Science stream wants to do Post Graduation then they can go for Master's Degree. Master of Science or MSc. is a post graduation program.

Both are different. Msc is a level after graduation while politial science is a stream. For example, in engineering it is Btech and Mtech in different streams of engineering. It is not limited to one stream.

In the same way when there is BSc in political Science , there is masters degree of it which is MSc or Masters' of Science

Hope it helps!

You are the one who is confused here ... quotation is not saying Masters in political science ... but master science ... according to Aristotle.. main function of the master was to indulge in politics ... where as slave should indulge himself in other works or master. Further at that point of time science and tech was not evolved .. hence the Political Science became master science .. means main science ... anyways if you are not a student or political science it is just gibberish for you. Don't worry you must be good in your discipline.
