Psychology
Overview
You’ll learn about how human minds - including your own - work in response to the world around them. You’ll gain skills to carry you into further graduate studies or into other work where research skills are sorely needed.
So, here's the deal:
Take five courses per semester for four years, and you’ll complete your Psychology degree [courses are worth 3 credits and 3 x 5 x 2 x 4 = 120 credits].
Your Future

The Psychology program is aimed at preparing students for graduate school. It is ideal for those wanting to go into graduate school in clinical psychology or do further work in basic research. It prepares students to work in the helping profession or in an academic research profession. The program also equips you with expertise in collecting and assessing information, which is necessary in our current informational economy.

Beyond the Classroom
In addition to meeting and exceeding best practice guidelines set out by the Canadian and American Psychological Associations, the psychology program offers the opportunity for hands on research experience working closely with faculty. This experience is usually not available to undergraduates and it gives you the opportunity to see how theory applies to life.
