Cand.scient.pol. (Latin: candidatus/candidata scientiarum politicarum; Template:Lang-da;[1] English: candidate of political science) is a candidate's degree (i.e. an advanced degree) in political science, awarded by several Danish universities. The degree currently requires five years of study; it historically required six years of study. The current five-year degree is equivalent to, and is translated into English as, a Master of Science degree in political science.

Until 2008, the equivalent degree awarded in Norway was called cand.polit, which in Denmark is a degree in economics.

20% of all members of parliament hold a cand.scient.pol. degree. [citation needed]
