Program and Course Requirements
University of Northern Iowa
2014-16
Students who want to declare psychology as a major or minor must have completed 9 units of psychology courses
(designated PSYCH) with a minimum GPA of 2.50.
Introduction to Psychology (PSYCH 1001) is a requirement for most other psychology courses, and therefore must be
taken by all majors and minors. It also fulfills Liberal Arts Core 5B. Only courses with an earned grade of C- or higher
will count toward the major and minor.
It is possible for psychology majors to graduate with departmental honors if they have an overall GPA of 3.50 or higher
and complete a research project deemed worthy of honors by the department. Generally such a project is done in the
context of 3 units of PSYCH 4705, Research Experience in Psychology. Departmental honors is a distinction which is
separate from the University Honors Program.
