Course Selection Guidelines
Common Curriculum(CC): In the Common Curriculum, all psychology courses count as if they are courses in the Division of the Social Sciences, except for PSY 210 , PSY 212 , PSY 310 , PSY 311 , PSY 312 , PSY 313 , PSY 315 , and PSY 410 , which can be counted toward the Common Curriculum science requirement. PSY 200 - Statistical Methods in Psychology does not count toward the Quantitative Methods Requirement (QMR).
Courses Suitable for Non-majors. All psychology courses are suitable for non-majors who have taken the prerequisite courses, with the exception of PSY 200 and PSY 300 , the required methods courses for the major.
For Neuroscience Majors and Minors only, BIO 110 and BIO 112 may be substituted for PSY 100 as the prerequisite for PSY 210 . Upon completion of PSY 210 , neuroscience students may take other Psychology courses without first completing PSY 100 .
Course Numbering: Psychology 100 or permission of the instructor is a prerequisite for all other psychology courses unless otherwise noted. 200-level courses typically treat basic topics and are appropriate to take with only PSY 100 as background. Courses that are cross-listed with other departments may have additional prerequisites. Most 300- and 400-level courses have 200-level courses as a prerequisite; these courses are appropriate for students in any class year, and for majors or non-majors, as long as they have fulfilled the prerequisites.
Seminars: Some seminars (e.g., PSY 410 , PSY 420 , PSY 430 , PSY 440 , PSY 450 ) may offer different topics in different terms. These may be taken more than once for credit, with the permission of the instructor.
