Psychology Department

Mission Statement

Psychology is the science that studies the natural laws which describe the behavior of people and other animals, and the physiological, cognitive, and social processes that underlie that behavior. Psychology is also a profession that applies the accumulated knowledge of this science to practical problems.

The mission of the Department of Psychology is to provide the student of psychology with a comprehensive introduction to this diverse scientific discipline. The department is committed through its curriculum and the specialty training of its faculty to represent the major subdisciplines of psychology.
