Psychology

Psi-Symbol

Psychology is a basic science that studies human behavior and mental processes, and it is also a profession that promotes human welfare by applying psychological knowledge to solve practical problems.  Our Psychology curriculum is designed to provide our majors with a solid background that will allow them to maximize their choices when they graduate from our program, whether they immediately choose to pursue a career or to pursue a graduate degree.  To that end, the Psychology Department affords varied opportunities that help prepare students for their future:  a solid breadth requirement, exposure to laboratory work, in-depth seminars, options to collaborate with faculty on research, and internships for those who qualify.

The B.A. in Psychology is one of the most sought after degrees at Siena; we currently have over 300+ majors and minors.  The department is composed of eleven full-time faculty members whose areas of expertise span the psychological spectrum.  You can find our faculty offices, the Psychology laboratories, and social science computing facilities in Roger Bacon Hall.
