Objectives:

The objectives of the Department of Psychology are the following:

  • To master the theory and content in Psychology and be able to describe the nature of psychology as a discipline.
  • To introduce students to the breadth of the field.
  • To teach students to develop and master the tools, techniques and methodologies of the field.
  • To develop critical thinking skills in psychology and when possible a scientific approach to solving problems related to behavior and mental processes.
  • To provide practical training in the science and practice of psychology, through volunteer programs designed by the College, and through the cooperation with pre-selected institutions/organizations. In this way, among other tangible benefits derived from on-the-job training, our students will have the chance to implement parts of what they have learned in class.
  • One of the hallmarks of our undergraduate psychology program is close collaboration between undergraduate students and faculty members.
