About Bachelor of Arts - Psychology
The St. Kate's psychology major provides an outstanding foundation upon which to pursue graduate work or a career in a range of professional fields and professional studies. Many psychology students enter graduate programs in the mental health fields of counseling or clinical psychology, in school psychology or in experimental areas of the field. Others pursue professional degrees in law, medicine, industrial relations, physical therapy, occupational therapy or public health.
Psychology serves as a sound liberal arts major because the discipline broadly spans the humanities and social and natural sciences. St. Kate's graduates have found positions immediately after graduation in schools working with students with special needs and as caseworkers in residential treatment centers, group homes and shelters. Others work in the legal system as victim advocates, as medical or social science researchers, as human resource professionals, as child life advocates in a hospital pediatric unit, and in various non-profit organizations. The curriculum includes a seminar that focuses on helping students explore their future career options.
For upper-division psychology majors who have demonstrated excellence in their course work, paid positions are available as laboratory instructors, scientific writing tutors or statistics tutors. These unique opportunities allow students to gain professional skills, and to practice teaching while sharing their knowledge and skill with others.
Psychology majors will take courses in psychology, biology and philosophy, and are encouraged to participate in a broad, liberal arts curriculum. Many students pursue internships, which are available at a wide variety of social service and health agencies. Internship sites include the Hennepin County Juvenile Detention Center, the Wilder Foundation, Minnesota Department of Public Safety, Veterans Administration Medical Center, Minneapolis Children's Medical Center, First Call for Help, the American Red Cross, the American Heart Association, the Arthritis Foundation, Tubman and Fraser.
