WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

Why do people think, feel, and act the way they do? B-CU's Bachelor of Science in Psychology invites you to explore the science behind human behavior — from the biological and cognitive to the emotional and social. This rigorous, research-focused program prepares you for graduate study and professional careers in mental health, counseling, education, law, and beyond. You will study developmental stages, personality theory, abnormal psychology, psychological measurement, and statistical research methods — culminating in a senior empirical research thesis that sets you apart in a competitive field.

Through B-CU's Psychology Field Experience, you will gain hands-on exposure in real mental health settings, building the practical skills and professional connections that launch careers and open doors to graduate programs in social work, clinical mental health counseling, psychiatric services, behavioral services, law, and education.
