Why Earn a Psychology Degree?

Undergraduate courses are taught by faculty and graduate students accomplished in both theoretical and empirical research. Our goal is to educate undergraduates in the scientific basis of psychological knowledge and expose students to the many ways that knowledge is applied in everyday life.

You'll learn the many ways knowledge is applied to everyday life through the scientific study of emotions, thinking and behavior. The rigorous curriculum examines:

• The history of psychology, the behavior of certain groups while learning the basic experimental procedures and techniques for interacting with patients or clients
• Human relationships
• Learning and memory
• Mental illness
• People's adjustment to different environments
• Personality development
