The Department of Psychology is focused on preparing students for graduate school, professional school, or the work force.  Upon graduation, our students are prepared for diverse careers involving the application of principles of human behavior to the betterment of humankind.  Students are provided ample opportunities to become involved in faculty research and to gain hands on experience through a variety of practicum or co-op placements.
