The curriculum in Psychology is intended to enhance one's understanding of behavioral science and of oneself and others in terms of concepts developed by study. Students choosing psychology as a field of concentration develop an approved concentration plan with a concentration advisor. Students then assume responsibility for completing their program of study or for making revisions which will not jeopardize their graduation.
Students are, however, encouraged to consult a concentration advisor at any time.
A concentration advisor must approve the original concentration plan and any exceptions to the stated concentration requirements. Students should also consult a concentration advisor when planning the final term's elections to ensure that all concentration requirements have been met and to secure an advisor's approval on a Concentration Release form. Appointments for students are scheduled at 1044 East Hall, 764-2580. Advising by Undergraduate Psychology Academic Peer Advising Program students is available at 1044 East Hall, 647-3207. Psychology concentrators with senior standing are eligible for the Walter B. Pillsbury Prize in psychological empirical research.
