Overview

Psychology uses scientific methods to attempt to understand, describe, predict and control behavior. The study of human behavior and animal behavior are two broad categories of specialization. Within each category further areas of specialized study are possible and can be matched to career aspirations.

The student may participate in a variety of formal programs which offer educational opportunities in Psychology such as the Honors Program, the Work-Study program, the Psychology summer program offered at the London Study Center, and the Psi Chi Organization. Students in the Psychology major at Florida State University are strongly encouraged to work in the department’s human and animal research laboratories and to participate in the department’s research on school and clinical problems in applied settings. These research opportunities allow students to get to know faculty and help prepare them for graduate school.
