Students of psychology receive a broad background in the scientific study of behavior. They become well versed in the theories, research, and applications of the discipline. In addition, the curriculum includes courses in the study of human development, biopsychology, cognition, personality and social psychology. The department also offers opportunities for direct experience in research and application of psychological principles.

The major and minor programs interest students who plan to work with people in any of a wide range of settings including programs for individuals with disabilities, research centers, personnel and business offices, and certain clinical settings. Also, the major offers an excellent preparation for graduate study in many fields of psychology, social work, occupational therapy, and more.
