Students can choose from either a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree. The B.A. provides a broad foundation in social and psychological theory, while the B.S. offers an additional emphasis on research and quantification of human behavior; these students will also complete a year-long (Fall to Spring) senior thesis.
Qualified students may also be eligible to earn a master's degree from Moravian University through our 4+2 Pathway Program in Clinical or School Counseling.
