DEPARTMENT of PSYCHOLOGY
MAJOR, MINOR, HONOURS
Engaged teachers; engaging material. Pursue your interest in human behaviour guided by faculty members with a range of specializations, from forensic and abnormal psychology to neuroscience and health.
When you study psychology, you learn the science behind the ways people think, feel and behave. You gain an understanding of the many factors that influence behaviour and participate in hands-on scientific investigations. Whether you choose a major or minor in psychology—or enrol in the honours program—you graduate with the knowledge and critical thinking skills valued by a wide range of employers.
