Psychology

Think Critically and Creatively

About The Program

Psychology is a broad discipline that employs the methods of scientific inquiry as it observes, describes, and explores the brain's role in emotion, thought, and behavior.

Because psychology has developed as an interdisciplinary subject, historically related to philosophy and biology, it is well suited as a major for students seeking a diversified education that will advance their understanding of themselves and others. Students desiring to enter a specialty field of professional psychology that requires a master’s or doctoral degree find that the undergraduate curriculum provides thorough preparation for graduate study.
