Program Overview

Psychology is the academic field that studies behavior both human and animal. It is a broad field with many areas of specialization. At Iowa, the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences offers course work in five areas: behavioral and cognitive neuroscience, clinical psychology, developmental science, cognition and perception, and personality and social psychology.Many vocational opportunities in psychology require advanced professional training through a master s degree (typically two years of graduate study) or a doctoral degree (typically four or five years of graduate study), so some undergraduates choose to combine a psychology degree with a second major in education, social work, business, journalism, or nursing.
