An understanding of psychology can be applied to every aspect of professional and personal life. The deep understanding of how people think and why they act (or don’t act) is critical to creating successful relationships. Psychological study helps students learn to creatively and critically evaluate information about human behavior.  

The Bachelor of Arts in Applied Psychology degree includes eight courses of in-depth study in the field of psychology, to complement the business and liberal arts core courses.  The program delves into the theory of the field, but then applies that theory for practical use.

The Psychology minor is available to all students. Four courses are required for the minor, which expands a student’s knowledge and understanding of themselves and others, including people from different cultures.
