Presbyterian College psychology majors are trained to be “scientific problem solvers.” The abilities to think critically, to conduct research, to analyze data, and to apply those skills to the study of behavior are just the tools required for many of the careers of the 21st century.

The  faculty of the Psychology Department  are dedicated to the education of our  students.  We represent a variety of specialties within the discipline, and  we encourage students to join us in our pursuit of the science of behavior.
