The Department of Psychology and Counseling resides in Lowrey Hall, a historic building that looks onto the Quad and continues to provide outstanding learning experiences to students enrolled in our undergraduate and graduate programs.

As a Psychology major, you’ll take courses in topics such as:

• Psychological statistics

• Developmental psychology 

• Experimental psychology 

• Abnormal psychology 

• Psychology of personality 

• Career paths in psychology

Curriculum

• For the B.A: students must fulfill 34 semester hours in psychology, plus 12 semester hours in a modern language.

• For the B.S.: A student electing the Bachelor of Science degree must take an additional 6 hours of electives in psychology for a total of 40 semester hours in psychology. The student in the B.S. degree program must also take 6 additional hours in psychology or a related field. These hours do not necessarily have to be in the same academic area in which the minor is earned.
