You may complete your B.S. or B.A. degree at Judson with a major in Psychology in as little as three years, giving you a head start in a career or graduate school.

The Department teaches psychology in a liberal arts context, which clarifies the connections between psychology and other disciplines, promotes critical reasoning skills, and, consistent with the College’s mission, emphasizes the ethical and moral dimensions of psychology and psychological research. Finally, our students are trained to apply psychological knowledge to real-world situations appropriately and be discriminating consumers of social and behavioral research.

Since 1838, Judson College has been committed to preparing young women for lives of purpose through the transmission of knowledge, the refinement of intellect, the nurturing of faith, the promotion of service, and the development of character. A private, four-year, Christian college with degree programs in liberal arts and the sciences, Judson College helps each student reach her full potential by providing her with opportunities to engage her mind, practice her faith, and live her purpose.

After 181 years, Judson College remains loyal to its original mission of educating young women in preparation for a life of service. We are a community that finds ongoing meaning in our shared traditions of the past, work in the present, and hopes for the future as we seek to recognize and embody God’s light and truth in the world.
