Psychology at Tri-C

Psychology is the science of human behavior and mental processes. Today’s careers can be competitive and most occupations require individuals to think critically and to interact with diverse populations. Psychology helps prepare people to be successful in any career since it promotes critical thinking and helps to sharpen communication skills. Any student interested in a career in education, health, business, skilled trades, criminal justice, and human services will benefit from a course in psychology.

Tri-C Psychology Courses and Transfer Options

Some Tri-C courses have prerequisite requirements that must be met before you can register.
