Overview

You’ll learn how to apply these skills to research that helps solve problems in our community and society.

All Psychology majors complete a guaranteed capstone experience – either an Applied Practicum/Internship or a senior thesis. Many students combine their passions by double majoring or minoring to prepare for careers in their areas of expertise. Graduates are prepared for graduate school as well as a wide range of careers, including human resources, management, marketing and education.

Key Facts

Roger Williams University is one of only two higher ed institutions in Rhode Island to have a plasticized human brain for neuroscience education, giving students a unique hands-on opportunity. According to Victoria Heimer-McGinn, assistant professor of Psychology, it's difficult to teach the anatomy of the brain with just a book. "With a brain in your hand, all of a sudden, students want to come to class. They want to explore the brain, look at it, and wonder about the person it belonged to, their memories and their past. It’s an educational tool and an outreach tool, and I’m hoping that throughout the years we can use it for many other things,” she said.
