About Bachelor of Arts - Psychology
Program Description
Psychology at Florida Atlantic University's (FAU) Charles E. Schmidt College of Science defines itself as a science that focuses on mental processes and cognition, social influences on the individual and the biological and neural bases of human and animal behavior. The main mission of FAU's faculty in psychology is to prepare students for graduate training and professional work in psychology as well as to provide a sound undergraduate education for students wishing to work in areas outside of psychology, such as business, law or education.
The B.A. degree in Psychology is intended for students interested in pursuing graduate study in psychology (experimental psychology, clinical or counseling psychology, applied psychology). The departmental program offers a focus in psychology and maximum flexibility in choice of electives. Thus, it may be tailored to the interests of the individual student and to further professional plans.
Facilities are available for experimental research in cognitive psychology, neuroscience and behavior, social/personality psychology and developmental psychology. Qualified students are strongly encouraged to become involved in such research, normally via a Directed Independent Research or a special research course.
