Psychological Science

Psychological science is a diverse and interconnected field of study exploring the biological, cognitive, developmental, social and personality, and mental and physical health domains of the human experience. Our department is committed to student-centered teaching and high-impact educational opportunities that foster critical thinking, career readiness, and social responsibility.

With a degree in psychological science, you can explore a number of different career paths, from counseling and healthcare to law, business, and more. A recent psychological science alum (see featured video), Alexis Wendl, used her degree in psychological science to pursue a career as a lawyer.

What our Students Have to Say about the Department

Marci Jumonville

The Department of Psychological Science at Weber State has provided me with so many opportunities, like research, volunteering, and campus involvement. The professors and staff are incredibly supportive and truly give their all to help students succeed.

Dentyn Sacre

I chose Psychological Science as my major because of the demand our culture has for well educated professionals who understand the inner workings of the mind and can guide others through relationships, challenges, opportunities for growth, pathways for self accomplishment and excellence. My personal experience with the psychological science department at 91风流 has shown me that the faculty is deeply dedicated to helping students pursue top notch opportunities for learning and growing both inside and outside of class time.

Weber State has allowed me to take advantage of countless opportunities in the psychological field. The smaller class sizes have helped me to grow my connections and to get involved within the department.
