Course Overview

Psychology is the scientific study of the brain and focuses on observing, experimenting, and analyzing behavior in multiple situations. To answer questions about what drives behavior, psychologists observe evolutionary factors, social and cultural inputs, and biological aspects of behavior.

RIT’s psychology degree provides students with a strong grounding in the discipline of psychology, integrated with a technological focus. Students study behavior to understand the mind, but also look at the brain itself, with the use of new technologies allowing for a deeper study of psychological processes. Curriculum planning and career discussions occur with each student’s faculty mentor.

Students choose two of the following interdisciplinary tracks: biopsychology, clinical psychology, cognitive psychology, social psychology, or visual perception. Current research and technology are integrated into these tracks to produce a focused and career-oriented psychology program. The tracks represent active fields of research in psychology, and students receive an education that provides a strong foundation for graduate school and employment in related fields.
