Description

At Acadia, we want to teach you how to answer your own questions about human behaviour and not just what others have learned about psychology. You will have the opportunity to do hands-on psychological research early in your studies. Class limits of 25 for laboratory courses and 20 for upper-year seminar courses allow you to consider issues in depth, in a small group atmosphere. Our intimate program size allows you to get to know faculty members and fellow students well, and for them to get to know you.

You can pursue either a Bachelor of Science (BSc) or a Bachelor of Arts (BA) in psychology. The entrance requirements and the requirements for the major are identical for both, but you have the flexibility to select courses outside your major that are best-suited to your interests and career goals. You can do a minor, or (if desired) a second major, in almost any other discipline.

Be Inspired

Acadia offers a Neuroscience Option, focusing on the study of the nervous system, and an Applied Option, focusing on the effective management of human behaviour. These options involve pursuing a selection of targeted upper-year courses in these areas, which can provide solid preparation for careers in the health sciences, and in applied psychology fields such as clinical psychology and organizational counselling.

If you meet the requirements, any of these programs can be pursued with honours. As an honours student, you will work closely with a faculty member to complete a full-year research project in your fourth year. You will not simply be a small part of a large research machine; instead, you will be a co-creator of an original piece of research. The experience gained through this process is invaluable.
