Psychology

Psychology StudentPsychology is the study of behavior and mental processes and is traditionally a popular field of study.  By the very nature of the profession, psychology is a service vocation.  This fits well with Waldorf's mission of preparing students for "lives of service."

A bachelor's degree in psychology prepares students to be well-rounded, educated individuals as it reflects many of the goals of a liberal arts education by providing:

  • A knowledge base
  • Thinking skills
  • Analytical reasoning
  • Interpersonal skills
  • Ethical values 

Psychology majors are prepared to pursue graduate and professional programs in psychology, where they could further specialize in a variety of areas in psychology including clinical, experimental, developmental, social, cognitive, human factors, sports, industrial/organizational, health, and forensics.
