Psychology
To study psychology is to make a difference in the world. Psychology touches on almost every aspect of the human experience, from learning and memory to personality and mental disorders.

Two Families Now
One way psychology benefits the population is in taking basic research and translating it into programs that can benefit people. Working with IRIS Educational Media, with funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), our faculty member Dr. Laura Backen Jones created Two Families Now: a group for parents going through separation and divorce. The program is used nationwide; it’s the only online parent education and family stabilization course listed on the National Registry of Evidence-based Programs and Practices (NREPP).
