Psychology may be defined as the scientific study of the behavior of humans and animals. The goal of the Department of Psychology is to help students understand the history, methods, and philosophy of the differing approaches to the study of behavior. The Bachelor of Arts degree (BA) in Psychology is distinguished by its liberal arts emphasis. Students who complete the BA satisfy the degree requirements by taking courses that advance their study of human and animal behavior. Students will acquire linguistic competency in a second language, engage in problem-solving, and critical thinking. Visit the Psychology Department webpage for additional information. Students should also consult a Psychology Department faculty member for questions related to the major and continuing their education in the field of psychology. Free Electives should be selected within the student's area of interest, in consultation with a psychology department faculty member. Career Planning Engaging in career planning activities is significant to student success. UNF offers customized career centers to deliver targeted programs, events, services and resources. First-Year students should visit the Career Services webpage and Sophomore or higher level students with a declared COAS major should visit the College of Arts and Sciences Career Success Center. Students should refer to their personalized Degree Evaluation provided by an advisor and to other university resources for additional university and college-specific policies. Visit the undergraduate university catalog for more information. Summer terms may be utilized to facilitate graduation in four years.
