Political science is related to other social science courses. These are sociology and economics. All are inter-related and important because one really cannot exist without the others.
Like other social sciences, political science often draws upon a wider list of methods than the natural sciencesbecause human systems can be intensely complex and are difficult to experiment with by changing initial conditions. To work around this, political science relies heavily on observation. Despite the complexities, contemporary political science has progressed by adopting a variety of methods and theoretical approaches to understanding politics and methodological pluralism is a defining feature of contemporary political science. At the end of the day, however, political science follows the same general methodology of any other science, it: 1. creates a series of assumptions about the world or some element thereof; 2. invokes a form of argument to make inferences from those assumptions; 3. constructs a theory implicating and predicting results in and beyond the model.
Very limited, political science is a social science just like economics and there is some overlap with components of psychology as well. You may find more overlap with philosophy but I would find it hard pressed to define that as science.

Political science is a type of social science, which studies the state, government and politics. It is concerned with the theory and practice of politics, and with the analysis of different political systems and political behaviour. Natural science is the study of the laws of nature - trying to understand what controls the natural world. This includes branches such as; Astronomy, Biology, Chemistry and Physics. Physical science includes the branches of Natural science that involve the study of non-living things (as opposed to the Life sciences).
According to political experts, the branches of learning related to political science include international politics, public policy and political theory.

Some major branches of political science include political theory, international relations, comparative politics, political economy, political Psychology, political communication, and formal theory and methodology.
History, anthropology, psychology, economics, political "science" and sociology.

They are both subjects
what is the relationship b/w political sceince and history
Firstly, political science is not a natural science, so it bears a weaker relationship than other natural sciences. Political science draws on some of the methods (e.g.) mathematics and statistics) and philosophies (e.g.) positivism) from the natural sciences but, for the most part, relies on its own counterparts.
Political science is a social science dealing with the study and practice of nations, states, governments, policies, and politics. Political science's relationship with other disciplines stems from these principle areas and intersects with other disciples like sociology, economics, law, history, psychology, public administration, and internal relations.
