Psychologists are ubiquitous in a vast number of career fields, from counseling to clinical psychology to social work. Pursuing a bachelor’s degree in psychology is widely practical because knowledge of the way humans think is useful in any line of work. Some of these careers do require a graduate degree and professional license.
In accordance with the Catholic, Benedictine, and liberal arts traditions, the Psychology Department supports students’ learning of the cumulative knowledge base and methods central to psychology within a framework of ethical principles and integration of knowledge. Our commitment is to educate the whole student effectively, integrating the intellectual, behavioral, spiritual, and emotional aspects inherent in the scientific study of behavior, mental processes, and emotion, and the application of psychological science to the promotion of human welfare. Regardless of the career path taken by our students after graduation, our goal is to enable them to think clearly and act with integrity in their professional, public, and personal lives.
Biological Psychology: In addition to learning fundamental physiological principles that underlie normal and disordered behavior, mental processes, and emotion, students engage in a well-informed critical and civil discussion of how bio-psychological knowledge and principles can be used ethically to understand and influence a wide range of problems. In addition to two exams, students do an assignment on differences in sex development such as Turner Syndrome and Complete Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (AIS) and short multimedia presentations on cutting edge topics such as sensory substitution devices or deep brain stimulation.
Special Topics: We regularly offer Special Topics courses. Recent offerings have included Cultural Psychology, Research on Financial Literacy, and Psychology and Film.
Social Psychology: This is a very popular course for psychology majors and minors and students from other majors. Students examine psychological theories and research that shed light on group behavior and the effects of social environments on individual behavior. Specific topics include cognitive attribution, conformity, gender roles, interpersonal relationships, and prejudice. Assignments may include not only exams and papers and class participation but also an analysis of a popular film.

Belmont Abbey College is a small, Catholic, Benedictine liberal arts institution. We find our center in Jesus Christ and believe in the development of the whole person—in mind, body, and spirit.
Our mission is to provide an education that will enable our students to lead lives of integrity, succeed professionally, become responsible citizens, and be a blessing to themselves and others.
Founded in 1876 by Benedictine monks we continue to celebrate the 1,500-year-old Benedictine monastic tradition of prayer and learning. Though we are founded on our Catholic, Benedictine traditions we welcome a diverse body of students regardless of religious affiliation.
Located just 10 miles west of Charlotte, NC, Belmont Abbey College is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Abbey is the only Catholic college between northern Virginia and Florida.
We invite you to explore our website, visit our campus and join the Belmont Abbey College family.
The Cardinal Newman Society calls Belmont Abbey College one of the top Catholic colleges in America for faithfulness and affordability, and First Things Magazine recently named the Abbey America’s #1 “School on the Rise, Filled with Excitement.” In addition, we have received a “Top-Tier Ranking” by U.S. News and World Report and recently named “A best Southeastern College” by The Princeton Review.
Our mission is to educate students in the liberal arts and sciences so that in all things God may be glorified. In this endeavor, we are guided by the Catholic intellectual tradition, the Apostolic Constitution Ex Corde Ecclesiae , and the Benedictine spirit of prayer and learning. Exemplifying Benedictine hospitality, we welcome a diverse body of students and provide them with an education that will enable them to lead lives of integrity, to succeed professionally, to become responsible citizens, and to be a blessing to themselves and to others.
Belmont Abbey College finds its center in Jesus Christ. By his light, we grasp the true image and likeness of God which every human person is called to live out. We aim to renew that likeness in all dimensions of life for our students and members of our community through curricular and co-curricular programs of excellence and virtue-based in the liberal arts as practiced in the Catholic and Benedictine intellectual traditions.
By excellence and virtue, we mean the skills, attitudes, and stable dispositions of character that make possible the consistent practice of the good throughout the full range of human pursuits (scholarly, professional, community, personal). Recognizing that each field has its own standards of excellence, we strive to achieve them, led by St. Benedict’s desire “that in all things God may be glorified.”
As a Benedictine institution, we find this glory especially revealed in the development of the whole person, guided by the liberal arts, as a responsible steward of the true, the beautiful, and the good. We welcome the talents of everyone, from any background and tradition, who are committed to fostering that development and contributing to the mission of the college. To the members of the Belmont Abbey College community, we offer an environment and community animated by this vision where they may work towards their own full potential.
