Psychology
Psychology is the study of behavior and mental processes. At Alverno, we use an experimental approach in the study of psychology, because first-hand experience helps you to develop the kind of understanding that characterizes the competent professional in psychology.
If you major in psychology, you can choose courses and projects that prepare you for careers in a variety of areas. Alverno psychology graduates become leaders in:
- governmental and nongovernmental human services organizations
- nonprofit community advocacy
- business and industry settings
- graduate school in psychology, both in clinical and research specialization
- other professional graduate training, such as law, education and social work.
Whatever your career plans, you will find that your work in psychology helps you to develop three key abilities:
- to think analytically
- to solve problems
- to interact effectively
