The study of psychology asks why people think and behave the way they do.
As a psychology major at 成人直播, you鈥檒l examine people from scientific, religious, philosophical, physiological and socio-cultural perspectives.
Whether you鈥檙e observing the application of behavioral principles with the animals at the Chaffee Zoo or practicing reflective listening in a mock counseling session, you鈥檒l take a hands-on approach to learning how to help others. Learn from faculty with a range of clinical training and perspectives as you study human behavior and mental processes though applied theory.
Take your studies beyond the classroom with research projects and field trips. Through the applied practicum, you鈥檒l intern in the field of your choice to gain relevant work experience.
Program Director: James Van Slyke, Ph.D.
The psychology major introduces students to the study of human behavior and mental processes, and prepares them for further study in the field. The major provides students with broad foundational training in psychology while challenging them to examine and understand human nature from scientific, religious, philosophical, physiological and sociocultural perspectives.
The psychology program strives to embody the values and vision articulated in the 成人直播 Idea. Inherent in our aspiration is the desire to cultivate a community of learners in which the wisdom of our faculty and students is discerned, valued, nourished and expanded. Our students are rigorously trained in the methodological, theoretical and philosophical foundations of psychological science, from which they can explore its sub-disciplines in more applied contexts. Our students integrate their faith with psychology and, through fieldwork, research-based and/or practicum experiences, consider the role of psychology in the larger community and in cross-cultural settings.
