Bachelor of Science in Psychology

The goal of the Department of Psychology is to provide students with an understanding of the methods and content of scientific and applied psychology. The primary means of attaining our mission is classroom instruction. We offer courses across a wide range of disciplines within psychology; some of our courses also include laboratories that focus on experimental and statistical work. Some of these courses are beginning to be offered as fully online and as hybrid courses (partially online and partially in the classroom). Further learning opportunities are made available through field work, the Honors Program, Experiential Learning, Independent Study, and Internships. Our Internship Program consists of supervised work placements for which students earn academic credit; potential sites include human service organizations as well as community and industrial settings. Bachelor of Science Psychology majors must select one of the three Bachelor of Science concentrations: General, Cognitive Neuroscience or Healthcare. Students are limited to only declaring one concentration.
