Spécialisation en Psychologie

Fascinated by human behaviors, thoughts, and emotions? Consider a major in Psychology. Psychology majors at Washington College are exposed to the vast fields within psychology and have the choice to broadly study Experimental Psychology or concentrate in Clinical/Counseling and/or Behavioral Neuroscience. Regardless of the chosen path, there are many opportunities to gain hands-on experience conducting research using a wide range of exceptional cutting-edge laboratory equipment, or to get real-world experience interning in a psychologically-based placement, all while building lasting relationships with professors who provide mentorship along the way.

Founded in 1782, Washington College was the first college chartered in the sovereign United States of America. General George Washington lent us his name, donated 50 guineas to our founding, and served on our first Board of Visitors and Governors. Our goal back then was to cultivate responsible citizen-leaders. Nowadays, we’re committed to giving our students the chance to succeed on their own terms through purposeful choices, enabling a healthy and regenerative global community.

Washington College students work closely with exceptional faculty on projects they are passionate about. With independent research facilitated by programs like the Cater Society and Toll Fellows and hands-on learning experiences, our students have access to amazing opportunities no matter what they’re studying.
