Psychology, Neuroscience, and Human Development
Consistently named a Great School for Psychology Majors by The Princeton Review, our department is a friendly community that welcomes diverse people and diverse voices. We focus on psychology as a science so that students can think critically about how and why people do what they do — skills and insight that apply to whatever job a student might pursue after graduation.
Our goal is to help prepare our students for meaningful lives and careers of purpose.
Our small class sizes enable us to offer top-notch training in research, analysis and other scientific skills often absent at large universities. Every psychology major learns firsthand how to conduct an empirical study. Many students go on to carry out independent research projects and present their findings at regional and national conferences. Each of our students engages in career exploration and preparation through one-on-one advising as well as inside of the classroom.
