Psychology Major/Minor

Psychology explores how and why the human mind functions the way it does in healthy individuals, as well as abnormal brain function and its effects on life.

The psychology major at Saint Mary’s serves students who plan to attend a graduate or professional school in psychology or a related field, those whose occupations will require knowledge of psychology (teachers, social workers, counselors, etc.), and those who are interested in psychology as a complement to a variety of other studies.
