The Psychology Department offers an undergraduate major and minors in neuroscience, art therapy, and psychology. An important aspect of the psychology major is the science/research orientation built into the curriculum with a three-course sequence consisting of 1) Psy 230 + 230L Stats for the Behavioral Sciences, 2) Psy 330 Experimental Methods, and 3) one capstone course-Psy 492 Seminar in Psychology; Psy 430 Advanced Experimental Psychology; or Psy 470 History & Systems of Psychology. The three-course sequence must be taken in order during separate semesters. The major also involves 27 restricted elective credits, enabling students to explore key sub-disciplines in psychology. Math 127L College Algebra or Math 234 Introduction to Probability and Statistics for LASC Goal 4 is recommended prior to taking Psy 230 Statistics for the Behavioral Sciences.
