Overview

The psychology major is a broad program that will prepare you for work or graduate school. Adding a specialized minor allows you to go further in your particular area of interest: applied psychology, applied developmental psychology, mental health, positive psychology, social entrepreneurship and criminology.

The Psychology degree at Carson-Newman University also explores questions that integrate Christian faith with academic study and application. You’ll be challenged to think about personal interpretation of psychological theories, how to respond to disagreements about social issues, how spirituality affects health and other related issues that are important to you.
