Requirements for the Psychology Major
The Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science in psychology require a total of 36 credit hours in psychology, excluding those counted toward general curriculum requirements. The Bachelor of Arts requires the equivalent of four semesters of foreign language. The Bachelor of Science requires the equivalent of math through Calculus I and Calculus II or Statistics as required in the core curriculum. At least two-thirds of these credit hours must be 3000- or 4000-level courses, and no more than 39 hours in psychology may be counted toward the degree. Psychology majors must earn a minimum grade of B in the four foundation courses. A senior project is also required. Options that satisfy this requirement include completing a one- or two-semester research capstone, taking a fifth core class, completing a 5000-level graduate course, or participating in a psychology practicum experience. Given that the major allows flexibility, students are strongly urged to work with their advisors to select courses in a meaningful order and in relation to their own career plans. However, majors are encouraged to take foundation courses as early as possible.
