Overview

Working closely with their advisor, students are encouraged to combine electives to form a thematic concentration that is both personally and professionally meaningful.

Since the study of psychology examines how and why people act, think, and feel, the Psychology major (or minor) at Nichols College is particularly useful when combined with other disciplines such as criminal justice, marketing, business communication, or management. Your academic advisor can assist you in determining whether a double major or minor aligns with your goals.

Your advisor won’t be the only one helping you on your journey. The entire faculty is committed to serving as teachers and mentors, helping students define their professional goals both in and out of the classroom through research projects, teaching assistant opportunities, internships, and independent study.
