Early in your major, you may also wish to take some courses which have no requirements of only require Psyc 101. Courses with no pre-requisite include Developmental Psychology (Psyc 317), Social Psychology (Psyc 241), Cross Cultural Psychology (Psyc 235), and Neuroscience (Neur 241).

- If you intend to pursue graduate work in psychology, it is advised that you take more than the 36 required credits. You may wish to select those extra courses from a given?study track.
- If you are contemplating graduate work at the Ph.D. level, we also recommend some coursework in biology and computer applications.
- Personality is the senior capstone course and should not be taken until your senior year.
After you have taken 20 credits of Psychology coursework, it is a good time to select an advanced seminar, which is usually a Psyc 481 course. The different topics have a different end number (such as 481-1, or 481-2). ?
