Undergraduate Degree Programs
The academic and research mission of the School of Behavioral and Brain Sciences is:
- Understanding the intersection of mind, brain and behavior.
- Enhancing the health, education and quality of life of children and families.
- Creating and implementing technologies and therapies that repair and strengthen human abilities.
We offer five undergraduate degree programs, two of which may be combined with a teacher certification plan. Students in any of our undergraduate programs may select the fast-track option, or choose to complete an honors thesis. Students also have the choice of selecting a minor in any of the five undergraduate programs and can seek out internship opportunities. Meet with an academic advisor to create a degree plan.
