Psychology Minor

Come join a continuum of theory and experimentation that’s only a century and a half old, with fresh discoveries being made every day.

This minor enhances any degree, providing the fundamentals of human interaction–a major asset for future careers. Using a balance of theoretical and experimental work, our program will provide you with a broad understanding of psychological theories and cognitive science. All of this takes place within small, discussion-rooted classes, a hallmark of the liberal arts tradition.

Guided by our renowned, approachable faculty, you’ll hone your ability to wrestle with unfamiliar problems and ethical issues, the tools to investigate topics in-depth, and the communication skills needed to share information with others. We’re committed to providing you with hands-on opportunities, both in formal classes and through directed laboratory, field research opportunities at home and abroad, and independent study.
