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.

In addition to the major requirements listed above, students will need to complete a general education curriculum and elective courses to earn 120 credits which is mandatory for earning a Greenville University degree. Details about the general education curriculum can be found in the Academic Information section of this catalog. Some general education requirements are met through required major courses which reduces the number of required general education credits. Students should work closely with their advisor to put together an academic plan to make sure all degree requirements are met in a timely manner.
