Bachelor of Arts - Psychology

Courses in the psychology major are designed to acquaint the student with the scientific investigation of behavior and mental processes. Students who are not pursuing a graduate degree in psychology, but are interested in using their knowledge of psychology in other professions, like business, communication, education, law, or social work are encouraged to complete the BA in Psychology. Students interested in pursuing a graduate degree in psychology should complete the BS in Psychology and are also encouraged to complete the requirements to gain a minor in Advanced Scientific Analysis.

The psychology major-applied track option requires 44 credit hours of coursework. Students should complete all 100-and 200-level requirements before accumulating 60 credit hours (junior status).
