BSc in Psychology in Chestnut Hill United States | Boston College

The Bachelor of Science in Psychology emphasizes research, making it ideal for students drawn to psychology's connections with other scientific fields or those aiming for research-oriented graduate programs (such as Ph.D. or M.D. tracks). B.S. candidates will complete psychology coursework while selecting complementary electives from fields like Economics, Computer Science, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. This combination offers students comprehensive knowledge of psychological science and practical laboratory experience. The program particularly benefits those seeking a research-intensive psychology education. Students considering non-research graduate paths (like social work, law, Psy.D., or Ed.D.) or desiring more schedule flexibility may find the Bachelor of Arts option better suited to their goals.
