Jones, M.S. The B.S. degree is designed for students oriented toward the natural sciences and mathematics. Students consult with their faculty advisers to select the degree program most appropriate to their interests and goals. Degree Requirements Candidates for a Bachelor of Science in Psychology must successfully complete 120 credit hours as indicated in the suggested curriculum below. No courses with the prefix PSY or PSF, other than PSY 2444, can be used as the Social Science Elective. Technical Electives exclude mathematics courses below the 2000 level. 166 Florida Tech The undergraduate psychology degree programs are designed to allow students to customize their coursework to meet their specific interests and needs. Coursework within the psychology major includes a 29-hour psychology core and an additional 21-hour psychology concentration that includes courses in psychology and other areas that are deemed appropriate to the students’ intellectual goals and interests in psychology. The concentration must be approved by the undergraduate program chair. Psychology bases courses and a list of concentrations follow the undergraduate psychology program plans in this section. Courses are offered in the department to facilitate several concentrations: animal learning and behavior, clinical/counseling psychology and applied behavior analysis, cognition–perception, industrial/ organizational psychology, neuropsychology, social–cultural psychology and sport psychology. Students may also design their own concentrations appropriate to pursuing postgraduate education in law, medical fields, business and the experimental fields of psychology. Students are encouraged to pursue minors in other disciplines, such as business administration, communication or biology.

Courses in both biological sciences and behavior analysis emphasize biological bases of behavior and species-typical learning as well as standard principles of training that cross species lines. Most students in this concentration also add a minor in biology. The culmination of the program is an internship within a facility or institution that emphasizes animal training, husbandry or education of the public in these areas. Previous graduates have earned internships at nationally and internationally known facilities such as Oahu’s Sea Life Park, Dolphin Quest Bermuda, Mote Marine Laboratory in Sarasota, Chicago’s Shedd Aquarium and the Oregon Coast Aquarium. Applied behavior analysis: The concentration in applied behavior analysis prepares undergraduate students for the associate certification in behavior analysis (BCABA) that permits career opportunities in facilities and with organizations that emphasize behavioral interventions. In the ABA concentration, special emphasis is given to principles of behavioral analysis and intervention strategies, particularly in working with children who have developmental disabilities. Internship opportunities under the supervision of licensed board-certified behavior analysts are available at Florida Tech’s Scott Center for Autism Treatment. In addition to the bachelor’s degree career opportunities, psychology graduates with this concentration have been successful in attaining acceptance in applied master’s degree and Ph.D. programs. Clinical/counseling psychology: The clinical/counseling concentration exposes students to courses and field placements that emphasize the assessment and treatment of mental and emotional disorders as well as disorders of adjustment and substance abuse. Students interested in pursuing postgraduate study in clinical, counseling or school psychology, or in obtaining employment in a mental health or social service agency after graduation, should study in areas that will familiarize them with these occupations and build basic skills. Such areas of study include substance abuse, abnormal psychology, clinical psychology, professional ethics and assessment techniques. Industrial/organizational psychology: Students who plan to enter business directly after graduation, or apply to an MBA program or to a graduate program in personnel or industrial/organizational psychology should select courses in psychology and business that will help define their interests, prepare them for graduate school admission or develop skills. Some useful areas of study include industrial/organizational psychology, business law, management, human resource management, organizational behavior and substance abuse. Students who choose this concentration are encouraged to add a minor in business administration. Sport psychology: Students looking forward to graduate programs in sport psychology or careers in coaching or training will take courses that are foundational to these pursuits such as physiological psychology, leadership, group behavior and sport psychology, and applied sport psychology. These classroom experiences, combined with practical training and research, give students a view of the various opportunities within this growing field as well as preparation for advanced study or practice. A minor in education is encouraged for those interested in working in secondary education. Specialty concentrations: In addition to these five areas, students may work with their adviser to develop a concentration in other psychology subdisciplines such as neuropsychology, experimental cognition and social–cultural psychology. MiNor PrograMs Minors in psychology and forensic psychology are offered through the School of Psychology. A complete policy statement regarding minors can be found in the Academic Overview section. Information about current minor offerings is available through the individual colleges/departments.
