Psychology, Bachelor of Arts

The psychology major requires completion of 30 credits beyond General Psychology or Psychology for Living. Psychology electives for the major are selected by the student and his/her advisor, and must meet or exceed an 18 hour minimum. The selection of courses should be focused around the vocational orientation of the student, and will often include one or two practicum sequences in facilities similar to those in which the student hopes to serve in the future. This major leads to a bachelor of arts degree.
