Minor in Psychology
The minor in Psychology is intended to meet the needs of students who recognize that an understanding and analysis of individual psychological processes is an important component of their education. The minor may also be of interest to students who have an interest in a double major but are unable to satisfy all of the requirements in two major fields.
Entry into the minor requires that General Psychology (or an equivalent introductory course) be taken as a prerequisite. Students who have completed PSY101 and who are interested in a minor in Psychology are expected to meet with a Psychology Department faculty member to discuss the selection of courses appropriate to their major and their own personal interests. No more than three courses that are required for a student’s major can count towards fulfilling requirements for the minor.
