Defined as the study of human behavior. This degree covers a range of interrelated sub-disciplines including but not limited to Child Development, Counseling, Neurobiology, Social influencing, Memory, Aging, & Personality. More broadly speaking, the degree educated me on research methods, statistics, teamwork, and presenting ideas in both written and oral formats. In addition, almost everyone one of my courses required the use and subsequent strengthening of skills relating to Microsoft Word, PP, and Excel. All of these I have continued to use and strengthen post-graduation.
