The Social Psychology Concentration

Drawing on the subfields of social, community, cultural, and self psychology, The Social Psychology concentration examines the individual in the context of the broader community and culture.  Specific attention is paid to issues of race, class, gender, and other important social categories.  Research, individual study and internship opportunities will involve applications of theory to real-world settings.   The Social Psychology concentration will provide a solid background for students interested in pursuing graduate work and/or careers in social psychology, social work, community psychology, cultural psychology, multicultural counseling, social or public policy, social services, and/or working with diverse populations in various settings.
