Psychology, A.A.

Psychology deals with individual human development. Study in psychology gives insight into our behavior and the behavior of others and prepares one for a variety of human services careers. It also provides part of the training needed for a variety of careers requiring an ability to work with other people.

This program allows students to specialize in psychology while working on an associate of arts degree. Students must successfully complete core courses with a “C-” or better to meet program requirements. Students planning to transfer to a four-year program may need to have additional hours beyond the program requirements at Northwest College in order to transfer in as a junior. These students should consult with their advisor and the appropriate four-year college catalog.
