BS in Behavioral Neuroscience
ConcentrationsA concentration is like a minor, only within psychology, and it is not required.  Each concentration provides supervised field experience.  For the Applied Clinical Science concentration, students engage in fieldwork for a minimum of 120 hours/semester throughout their junior or senior year.  These students meet with the concentration director and select an internship site during the Spring prior to their placement.  For the concentration in Industrial-Organizational Psychology, internships are arranged individually.
For more information on our concentrations, clink this link.
Gaining Real World ExperienceHaving off-campus experience working with populations in the community prior to graduating can help students gain admission to graduate school or obtain a job after graduation. Students can gain real world experience before graduating from Quinnipiac with a psychology major in many different ways.
