Course Listing
Only courses numbered 3000 and above count as advanced courses for major or minor requirements in this department.
§Independent work means not less than three additional hours each week of conference, research, independent reading, and writing as assigned by the instructor. The student's grade is determined in part by the successful completion of this independent work.
Students with superior records and the recommendation of an instructor in the department of psychology may apply to the chairperson for permission to register for honors courses. Students may not register for more than six credits in honors courses in the department in one term and may not receive credit for more than four honors courses.
The college has recently transitioned to a new course numbering system in preparation for the migration to the CUNYfirst platform. Old course numbers are provided in the parenthesis after the "/" symbol.
