Psychology
Welcome to the Psychology & Education Department at Columbus State Community College!
Psychology is the study of behavior and mental processes. Simply put, it's an exciting field that helps us understand who we are, what we think, how we feel, and why we behave the way we do. The many sub-fields of psychology - abnormal, developmental, social, personality, and more - make it applicable to most every major, occupation, or personal experience.
The CSCC Psychology Department has over 50 full-time and adjunct instructors who have experience in diverse areas of psychological research, teaching, and service. In addition, the Psychology Department houses the Education Program which provides courses for those entering the teaching profession. We offer a variety of classes that can help you earn your associates degree or start you on the path towards earning your bachelors. Transfer agreements and partnerships with other four-year institutions allow you to take your first steps towards a degree in psychology in the more personal classroom setting that Columbus State provides.
A list of course descriptions can be found via the CSCC Course Catalog.
