Degree Title:	BS in Psychology
College:	Liberty University
Description:	Liberty University's Bachelor of Science in Psychology program approaches the discipline of psychology from a Christian perspective to provide students with a firm foundation from which to understand psychological development and behavior. Students will gain insight into the development and influence of personality based on current theories, as well as study human personality in relation to others through the application of ideas about group dynamics relative to business, industry, public and private life. Courses give students the opportunity to tap into the diverse theoretical approaches of counseling and psychotherapy by evaluating associated methods and techniques, and allow students to explore the complex functioning of the human body to acquire an understanding of primary mechanisms of behavior. Students will also examine the origin, classification, and symptoms of neurotic and psychotic behavior. As the world’s largest evangelical university, Liberty University incorporates core Christian values into all of their degree offerings in order to provide all students a thorough academic and spiritually enriching program of study.
