Admission to Upper-Level Laboratory Courses:
To enroll in the Advanced Topic courses1 the student must make a C or better in both PSYC 2300,PSYC 3200 and PSYC 3300 or equivalent courses and must have completed the associated upper-division lecture course.
| 1 | Advanced Topic courses: PSYC 4410,PSYC 4411, PSYC 4412, PSYC 4415, PSYC 4420, PSYC 4421,PSYC 4430, PSYC 4431. |
Distinguished Scholars in Psychology
The Department of Psychology offers a Distinguished Scholars program in psychology. This program is intended to provide students with the opportunity for intellectual and professional development that will take them beyond the requirements of the basic B.A. or B.S. degrees. Thus, the program serves to promote and acknowledge the special achievements of participating students.
To qualify, the student must have completed 30 hours with a grade point average of 3.0 or better in residence at UT Arlington, including 10 hours in psychology, with a minimum grade point average of 3.5 or better. The student does background reading and designs a study with a faculty sponsor in PSYC 4361, then performs the research project and writes an honors thesis in PSYC 4398. In most cases, the six hours of Distinguished Scholar credit will not increase the total hours necessary to complete the B.A. or B.S. degree.
Qualified students or students who believe they may qualify should contact the undergraduate advisor as soon as possible after completing PSYC 3300.
Requirements for a Bachelor of Science Degree in Psychology
The requirements to receive a Bachelor of Science Degree in Psychology can be achieved through a degree plan under any one of the two options (i.e., Option 1-BS in Psychology with a minor from a different discipline, Option 2- BS in Psychology with an Emphasis in Psychology).
