B.A. in PSYCHOLOGY

SUPPORT WORK REQUIREMENT

2002-2004 Catalog

The purpose of the 12-hour support work in requirement is to ensure that students take a group of courses outside the major that augment their studies within Psychology.  The courses that make up the 12 hours of support work should have some thematic relationship to each other and are not intended to be a random collection of electives.  [NOTE:  Courses that meet Core requirements cannot also be used to meet support work requirements.]

Students may meet the support work requirement in a variety of ways:

A.        Students who are completing a double major or a minor automatically meet the support work requirement with the second major or the minor.

B.         Students who intend to apply to medical or dental school may use the pre-medical science requirements as their support work (i.e., four courses in biology, two courses in physics, two courses in general chemistry, and two courses in organic chemistry).

C.        Students who intend to apply to a physician's assistant program may use the required science courses beyond the Core as their support work -- i.e., CHE 1303, BIO 3713, AHS 2083 or BIO 2123, and AHS 2103 or BIO 3413.

D.        Students who intend to apply to a physical therapy program may use the required science courses beyond the Core as their support work -- i.e., BIO 3413, CHE 1103, CHE 1303, PHY 1603, and PHY 1623.

E.         Students may prepare their own list of 12 hours of support work.  The courses that make up that 12 hours must bear a thematic relationship to another that can be defined by a label.  Students who choose this option must have their support work approved by a faculty member in Psychology and must file that approval with the College of Liberal and Fine Arts Advising Center in advance of taking the courses.

F.         Students may use 12 hours of the same foreign language to meet this requirement.

G.        Students may choose from the following list of recommended support work topics.  [Note:  Students are responsible for verifying and completing prerequisites for courses listed.]
