Want to learn about what makes people do the things they do?  Why do people think the way they do and remember the things they remember? What leads to the development of mental health problems and how can people with such problems be supported? How do our personalities develop and affect our behavior? How do other people affect the way we think and behave? How can we apply what we know about what makes people tick to business, industry, counseling, or other areas? If so, check out the Psychology major and minor.

Want to focus on how the human brain is involved in human behavior? How are our emotions related to neuronal activity? How are mental health problems related to the nervous and endocrine systems? How can information about the brain and body be used to help improve human lives? If so, check out the Neuroscience major and minor.

Are you interested in helping people using art as one of your tools?  Do you imagine yourself working with kids or adults receiving other mental health treatments and supporting them through creative expression though drawing, ceramics, painting, or other creative arts? If so, check out the Art Therapy minor, co-offered by the Psychology Department and the Department of Art.
