Discovering the "Why"
Psychology scientifically studies human behavior to learn why we behave the way we do and how we can apply that knowledge. Through rigorous and practical courses students gain perspectives on personality, thinking, emotion, human development and mental disorders. Through class, laboratory and field work, critical-thinking, communication, and research, skills become applicable in many fields: education, health, business and international relations.
Many of our students graduate being prepared for graduate school in psychology or related fields, but also for a wide variety of careers that value the knowledge and analytical skills of our Psychology degree. A degree in Psychology is an incredibly desirable qualification in fields such as human resources, marketing, sales, social services and others.
