Grounded in the American Psychological Association's Guidelines for the Undergraduate Major: Version 2.0, this comprehensive Psychology four-year program from Lake Superior State University emphasizing research, experimentation, computer applications and a senior-research sequence is excellent preparation for graduate work at the master’s or Ph.D. level in a wide variety of psychology disciplines.

Upon successful completion of the Junior Seminar in Psychological Science (PSYC399), psychology majors may elect to continue in the Psychology - Psychological Science concentration or switch to the Psychology - General Psychology concentration.
