Psychology is a liberal arts major that is a natural science, social science and health-care profession which seeks to stimulate intellectual curiosity, an appreciation for cultural diversity, an understanding of the scientific method, critical thinking, and effective communication skills through classroom, research, and practicum learning experiences. In addition to presenting a thorough grounding in the theories, methods and research findings of the discipline, the major in psychology provides students with technological and other skills applicable to the workplace and prepares students for graduate study.
A grade of “C” or better is required in PSY 105 . No more than one course with a grade of “D” can count toward the requirements for a major in psychology (including the biology and mathematics course requirements).
