Psychology
Psychology embraces all aspects of the human experience — from the functions of the brain to the behavior of nations, from child development to care for the elderly.
Develop an understanding of the many factors that influence human cognition and behavior by probing and exploring mental processes. You will also learn about human development, animal behavior and social groups.
Graduates acquire a nuanced insight into how the mind works, which allows them to easily transition from the classroom to the boardroom.
Psychology graduates are in demand in a variety of fields, including human resources, advertising and government.

Kean Professor Monica Levine-Sauberman instructs a child psychology class.

Kean's community service culture is heavily embedded in the University's standards. Those institutional values have made me feel more welcome. I’ve been able to grow through my Kean experience, both professionally and in the classroom."
