Psychology Focus, AAPsychology Associate of Arts The Psychology program provides a strong foundation of psychology and general education coursework for students planning on continuing their education by obtaining a bachelor’s or graduate degrees in psychology. The Psychology program provides educational experiences and exposure that will allow you to work in entry-level jobs requiring broad-based knowledge and skills such as office assistance and administration, tutoring, research assistance, and public relations. However, most Psychology students continue their education to earn bachelor’s and graduate degrees, allowing them to develop a specialty focus in psychology, expand their knowledge, and enhance future earnings. Courses in the Psychology program meet the requirements of the Ohio Transfer Module, Transfer Assurance Guides, and the Ohio Guaranteed Transfer Pathway, thus they transfer individually to all colleges and universities within the University System of Ohio. In addition, NC State has many agreements with four-year colleges and universities to provide a smooth transition to bachelor’s degree programs. The psychology curriculum is also part of the Ohio Consortium for Transfer Pathways to the Liberal Arts. |
