PSYCHOLOGY
The psychology program assists students in developing the theoretical insight and
professional skills that enable them to enter graduate study and to serve in a variety
of psychology-related careers and professions. The program involves the student in
learning the principles of the humanistic, biological, behavioral, cognitive and
psychoanalytic approaches to psychology. The purpose of the program is to develop
students equipped with psychological insight informed by a biblically based Christian
perspective. As an integral dimension of this purpose, students are introduced to a
variety of training experiences in psychological research and in clinical/counseling
practice. In addition, a supervised field education experience is required for all
psychology majors. Students may complete the field education requirement by
participating in the Chicago Semester program and may earn up to nine hours of
psychology credits. Psychology majors will meet the communication arts requirement
through oral presentations distributed among several courses offered in psychology. |
