Psychology Minor
Cultivate your curiosity.
Why does chocolate make you happy? Why do we succumb to peer pressure? Why do some people develop addictions more easily than others? Why do you want to understand everyone around you more deeply?
Psychology is the scientific study of "why," or specifically, the examination of behavior and mental processes and their application to human welfare. Students who have an interest in psychology but would prefer to adapt their study as a complement to another major may choose to minor in psychology. The curriculum allows flexibility in course selection. Thus, students with majors in a wide variety of disciplines will find it possible to design a psychology minor that is relevant to their career goals.
