About Bachelor of Science - Psychology

Program Description

In psychology students ask why and how people do the things they do. Students will apply scientific principles to explore human behaviour such as one's desires, impulses, actions and emotions.

University of New Brunswick Saint John faculty members conduct cutting edge research in areas such as criminal justice, forensic psychology, addictions, psychopharmacology, inter-personal relations and well-being, lie detection, animal learning and human development and perception. In a student's first year they will take two introductory psychology courses that will provide them with an overview of major topics such as the biological basis of behaviour, personality development and abnormal psychology. At the end of a student's second year they may choose to complete a major or double major in psychology. An honours program is also available. Honours students are required to choose courses from three main areas of study: biological/cognitive basis of behaviour, social/personality behaviour and clinical/applied psychology.

A psychology degree declares that people are a student of human nature. Students will understand what influences social behaviour and be able to identify potential sources of conflict. An undergraduate degree is a good first step towards a Masters or Ph.D., which are requirements for becoming a clinical psychologist or academic researcher.

A student's psychology degree could lead to career as a:
  • Caseworker
  • Career counsellor
  • Family counsellor
  • Marriage counsellor
  • Human resources professional
  • Probation officer

  • Mediator
