Undergraduate Program
The Psychology program at SUNY Plattsburgh provides a broad background that focuses on the scientific basis of human behavior. We offer a baccalaureate degree in Psychology at our main campus and at our Branch Campus at Adirondack Community College. We also offer minors in Psychology, Art Therapy, and Gerontology. Students can gain practical experience through numerous research and teaching opportunities, internships, and participation in Psi Chi. These opportunities provide an excellent foundation for entering master's and doctoral programs, and they help students develop skills sought by employers in diverse fields such as social service, human service, business, and research.
