Psychology Minor
Coordinator: Jessica McManus
The Psychology minor enables students to explore the complexities of human behavior. Through a variety of coursework, students learn about human and non-human animal behavior ranging from the firing of a single neuron to the death and dying process. Note: This minor is only open to non-art-therapy majors and those not pursuing a biopsychology minor.
