Psychology Degrees

Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Psychology

Bachelor of Science (BS) in Psychology

In addition to the BA requirements, the BS degree requires PSYC 3700 (Quantitative Methods II), and the laboratory sequence of BIOL 2040 (Concepts in Biology I) and BIOL 2050 (Concepts in Biology II).

Bachelor of Science (BS) in Neuroscience

The BS in Neuroscience is an interdisciplinary program delivered through Psychology, Biology, and related departments. Neuroscience majors focus on the study of how the brain and nervous system relate to behavior.

Minor in Psychology

Students in any major can declare a minor in Psychology. The minor requires PSYC 1010 and 16 credits of other Psychology elective courses.  

BG Perspective (BGP) requirements are best completed by the end of the fifth semester, leaving the remaining three semesters to focus on requirements for the major and minor. We recommend that General Psychology (PSYC 1010) be taken during the first year, as well as any necessary MATH courses before enrolling in Quantitative Methods I (PSYC 2700). Talk to your advisor to see what math classes you may be required to take.

All Psychology majors are required to have a minor. Common minors associated with Psychology majors are listed in our Minors Guide.
