BA Psychology

Professional careers within psychology typically require an advanced degree. Psychologists can work in a variety of settings, including those that are clinical, industrial, and those that are educational. The undergraduate major in psychology at Elmira College provides an excellent base for graduate education. However, skills such as scientific hypothesis testing, cultural sensitivity, attention to multiple explanations of behavior, and working with uncertainty, are all learned in psychology courses, and are readily transferable to careers in the sciences, allied health professions, and the business world.
