心理学文学士-产业组织心理学

新帕尔茨大学的心理学课程旨在反映本科心理学专业学生不断变化的需求和兴趣。心理学专业或辅修专业的学生的兴趣通常可归为以下三类之一：（1）那些想要获得心理学的一般背景但又不想在心理学领域求职的学生；（2）那些想要获得心理学专业的学生在就业情况下运用心理学的一些原理和技术，以及（3）那些希望获得研究生学位的心理学职业的人。由于心理学是一门以经验为基础的科学，因此心理学专业的学生需要具备解释和产生新信息的技能。为此，所有专业都需要统计学和研究方法学课程。此外，所有心理学专业的学生都以精疲力竭的方式进行演讲，并撰写
The Psychology program at New Paltz has been designed to reflect the varying needs and interests of undergraduate psychology majors. The interests of students who major or minor in psychology generally fall into one of three categories: (1) those who want a general background in psychology but don't intend to seek employment in the field of psychology, (2) those who want to apply some principles and techniques of psychology in an employment situation, and (3) those who want to pursue a career in psychology with a graduate degree. <br><br>Psychology is an empirically based science. Therefore, it is desirable for psychology majors to have the skills to interpret and generate new information. To that end, courses in statistics and research methodology are required of all majors. In addition, psychology majors take a writing-intensive capstone seminar in which they demonstrate their mastery of the techniques and the content areas of the discipline. Students majoring in psychology are advised to acquire a broad range of training in the Liberal Arts. Taking a variety of elective courses in other disciplines is strongly recommended.
