Bachelor of Arts - Psychology - Behavioral Neuroscience

All psychology programs offer a wide range of courses at both introductory and advanced levels in areas such as developmental, social, abnormal, personality, and experimental psychology, and in special topic areas such as techniques of psychotherapy, drugs and behavior, health psychology, sport psychology, psychology and the law, and current issues in psychology. The behavioral neuroscience track is designed for students wishing to earn a baccalaureate degree with an emphasis on the physiological basis of behavior. Undergraduate course requirements provide for the integrated understanding of the pharmacology of drug action and brain function as they relate to the discipline of behavioral neuroscience. Course study culminates with an advanced experimental psychology seminar providing “hands-on laboratory experience” using current neuroscience methods.
