Introduction

The Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology offers students a variety of pathways for successful careers in Psychology-related fields and advanced study in Psychology. Students may choose from concentrations in Counseling, Human Resource Management, Forensic Psychology, Lifespan Development, and Mind/Body Health.

Instead of choosing one of these concentrations, the student may also pursue General Psychology to gain a broad background in the field. All students in the Psychology degree program are trained in psychological research methodology, a critical component for understanding Psychology as an academic discipline and a profession.

In addition, the Psychology program maintains relationships with a broad range of organizations that offer internships in counseling, human services, healthcare, or business. Advisors work closely with students to plan the internship and ensure that the experience is successful.
