Psychology and Sociology students have direct contact with instructors who have been, or are currently, psychologists, therapists or counselors. The classes in this department are designed to prepare a psychology or sociology major to think critically, which is a necessary skill when dealing with people. Classes in this department stress the theories, ideas and practical knowledge that students continuing on to a four-year college will need to have in their pursuits for graduate degrees in psychology or sociology.
