Psychology is the scientific study of thinking, emotion, and behavior.
Psychology uses scientific research methods to develop and test theories, and to explain or predict behavior. The Psychology Department offers a B.S. or B.A. in psychology. In conjunction with the degree course work requirements, students in the undergraduate program are encouraged to select one of four tracks or emphases depending on their postgraduate goals. A Liberal Arts Track is available for students who wish to obtain a broad background in psychology without specializing in any particular subdiscipline of psychology. Its diversity gives students a flexible background for postgraduate careers.
