Bachelor of Science

 

Depending on their background and orientation, students may choose either the B.A. or B.S. degree. The primary difference between the degrees is that the B.S. requires additional science courses outside of the Psychology Department.

For the B.S. degree in Psychology, requirements and recommendations are the same as for the B.A., except that Math 17-19 is not acceptable; Math 121-122 is required. Additionally, students who are candidates for the B.S. must take:

  • BI 170-171 General Biology
  • CH 11-12 General Inorganic Chemistry I and II
  • CH 211-212 Organic Chemistry I and II
  • PS 83-84 General Physics for the Life and Health Sciences I and II
