Program Overview

Psychology is a broad and exciting field of science. Psychology students might pursue careers in clinical psychology, counseling, school psychology, social work, or family therapy, or a career in education. Or, students might be drawn to study human behavior and the brain. At Southern, students get a broad education in psychology and focused training in their specific area of interest, whether it's the mental-health field, neuroscience, cognitive science, or applied psychology. Internship sites afford students professional experience in mental health, educational, and laboratory settings.

Psychology is the study of the mind, the brain, and behavior, which covers a wide range of topics, such as understanding different forms of mental illness, how we learn and think, how we interact with others, and how our nervous system works. Psychology is a research-based field and we emphasize the scientific method in our classes, and the field also covers how psychological knowledge can be applied - such as treating disorders, providing counseling, enhancing employee health, assessing cognitive skills, and improving educational techniques.

The B.A. in Psychology, General Concentration is designed for students who want to obtain a broad base of knowledge in psychology. It provides training in the experimental methods of scientific psychology, as well as the principles of behavior and mental processes. Students take a mixture of courses and selections from specific groups of courses and are encouraged to pursue opportunities to become involved in research, including for credit internships and thesis projects.
