Interdepartmental Major

Interdepartmental majors will normally take eight courses in psychology that must include:

1) Psychology 100 (Introduction).

2) Psychology 200 (Statistics).

Students wishing to do an interdepartmental senior thesis will also take Psychology 300 (Experimental).

An interdepartmental major must indicate to his or her advisor in psychology what courses within the Psychology Department will constitute the psychology component of the interdepartmental major. The set of courses should demonstrate a genuine connection to the chosen interdepartmental major and must be approved by the department chair. Normally, specification of these courses will occur by either late in the sophomore or early in the junior year.
