Psychology combines perspectives from both the social
sciences and the natural sciences to gain an understanding
of the processes underlying human behavior. The psychology
major at Wooster stresses an empirical approach to
the broad range of psychological issues and problems.
The curriculum is designed to expose students to both
scientific and applied aspects of the discipline, and majors
become familiar with theory and research. Laboratory
experience and research methodology are integral parts
of courses at all levels.
