“The diversity of Ecu’s <strong>course</strong> was an<br />
accurate reflection of the field itself.”<br />
The field of psychology is so diverse, and ECU’s <strong>course</strong><br />
was a true reflection of this. The <strong>course</strong> gave me the<br />
opportunity to explore the various areas of psychology,<br />
and discover what I wanted to pursue professionally.<br />
