Explore the requirements for our
Degree Programs
and examine the
Course Descriptions.
Closely examine the timeframe for completion of your academic program, seek
out internship and service learning opportunities that will help you explore
applications, and discuss the possibilities with
a faculty member you have enjoyed having as a professor.
The focus of the B. Sc. degree is upon experimental research. This really
excites some students, many of whom are interested in
pre-med or health fields for graduate study. However, students
who are
graduate school bound also enroll in our B. A. program. For example,
students who are more interested in social issues often combine
psychology
with a sociology degree, an interdisciplinary studies major,
or a communications minor in social justice. If you enjoy interdisciplinary
courses, a psychology degree that complements another discipline may be of
interest to you, since this shows flexibility and multi-dimensional thinking.
