Psychology is the scientific study of human and animal behavior, and it's a diverse field.
Psychologists work as researchers, teachers, human service providers, administrators, and consultants. They work in universities, hospitals, business, industry, government, and independent private practice. The psychology department at Murray State provides students with the very best in undergraduate and graduate education both in and out of the classroom. Students have the opportunity to participate in departmental clubs and activities and are encouraged to work with faculty on research projects. Departmental facilities include an entire floor of scientific laboratories as well as a networked computer lab for student use.
