*NOTE: Co-Op courses do not usually fulfill Category 6.
**Fieldwork involves extensive supervised work (a minimum of
60 hours during the semester) in a mental health or educational
agency plus a substantial term paper integrating research from
the professional journals with observations at the agency. All
fieldwork courses have prerequisites and/or co-requisites. Fieldwork
courses are not offered in the Winter or Summer Sessions.
***Independent Research involves a scientific investigation conducted
under the supervision of a member of the psychology faculty.
The project must involve the collection and statistical analysis
of original observations; library work alone will not suffice. A
commitment of well over 60 hours is expected, and the student
should be proficient in research methods.
M/
SPSY 242 Statistics, M/SPSY 472 Independent Research, and a fieldwork course
are highly recommended, especially if you plan to pursue graduate
work.
NOTE: Prerequisites for psychology courses are listed under the
course descriptions in the Web catalog. |
