Biopsychology Minor

Coordinator: Shannon Kundey

The biopsychology minor allows students to explore the intersection of biology and psychology. Through a variety of coursework, students learn how the brain, neurotransmitters, and other aspects of our biology influence our behaviors, thoughts, and emotions. Note: This minor is only open to non-psychology majors and those not pursuing a psychology minor.
