About the Department
The Department of Psychology assists students in developing the skills necessary for the observation, understanding, and analysis of human behavior. Study in psychology provides a foundational background for a broad variety of careers in which the understanding of human behavior and social processes is useful. In their study of psychology, students are encouraged to engage in personal exploration and development within a spirit of community. Students gain a greater awareness of their strengths, skills, and areas for personal, intellectual, and spiritual growth. A bachelor's degree in psychology qualifies one for entry-level positions in mental health and community service agencies or human resources. More advanced work may require a minimum of a master's degree.
