The major in clinical psychology, offered by the Department of Psychology, is intended for students interested in entering graduate or professional schools in mental health or human services and/or working with psychiatric patients. A special feature of the program is the Supervised Seminar Fieldwork/Clinical Internship, a yearlong volunteer internship opportunity that is available to majors in their Senior Year. This is advantageous for both Psy.D. and Ph.D. programs that both require some clinical volunteer experience. Students who do not elect to complete the internship may elect to complete research or a senior honors thesis.Psychology is concerned with the processes and principles of behavior in humans and animals. Increased understanding of oneself and others through the study of psychology is useful in almost every endeavor. Our undergraduate psychology curriculum is diverse in order to reflect the breadth of the field -- from the biological bases to the social determinants of behavior. Students can obtain general familiarity with psychological knowledge as well as have the opportunity to emphasize specific areas of psychology. Courses are geared toward the development of evaluative and analytic skills, which are indispensable to advanced study in experimental, clinical, and applied psychology. These skills, together with knowledge of the factors influencing individual and group behavior, are highly valuable for careers in such diverse fields as public health, engineering, medicine, business, administration, law, and education.The department offers a psychology major, which offers a great deal of flexibility in areas of emphasis. We also offer four additional majors for students wishing to pursue specialized interests in biopsychology, clinical psychology, engineering psychology, and cognitive and brain science. Each major requires several courses taught in the department, as well as a variety of courses taught in fields related to psychology.
