Psychology is a field of study that explores human behavior and mental processes. Develop a robust set of skills, from comprehension of interpersonal relationships and social services, to science-based research and statistical analysis. This juxtaposition of both human and scientific understanding will make you a strong candidate for employment. In a curriculum aligned with the American Psychological Association guidelines, prepare to enter clinical, behavioral, developmental, organizational, social, and neuroscience fields. Work with professors to be involved with research, paraprofessional training, and field experiences.
A major and minor are offered.
You have the opportunity to join Franklin Pierce's chapter of the National Psychology Honor Society if you meet national requirements for induction.
