Psychology

The Department of Psychology offers students a choice between a B.A. and B.S. degree. Psychology is the science of behavior and mental processes. Many psychologists work with people to understand how they think, respond to stress, learn and forget, develop unique personalities, and interact with one another. Others study animals' behavior and nervous systems to find general principles that apply across species. Psychologists apply their knowledge to therapy and counseling, improve practices in schools, prisons, and rehabilitation centers, and enhance performance in the industry, business, and professions. Careers in psychology are already plentiful and fulfilling, and the field is one of the fastest-growing in the world.
