Psychology

Psychology is Geneseo's largest liberal arts major. Coursework involves broad preparation in the fundamental ideas of psychology along with the development of quantitative, analytic, and writing skills. Students can further develop interest and skills through collaborative research with the faculty, sponsored internships, and directed studies.

Outside the major, the department maintains branches to other disciplines. We offer service courses to education and business majors as well as contributions to many of the interdisciplinary programs, including cognitive science, human development, organizational and occupational behavior, urban studies, and women's studies. The department's faculty provide service to the larger community in a variety of ways, such as conducting workshops, offering other training programs, and serving on community boards and committees.
