Housed in the Department of Behavioral and Social Sciences in the College of Arts and Sciences, the Bachelor of Science in Forensic Psychology gives you a broad background in the psychological and forensic sciences through lab experiences, coursework and mentorship.

You'll combine psychological training with a solid foundation in forensic science and the U.S. legal system. Psychological training is focused on gaining knowledge of the behavioral and social sciences and the role they play in understanding and predicting human behavior. 

Forensic Psychology students also have opportunities to work in the Forensic Science Laboratory, which offers space to learn forensic science techniques and carry out investigations related to criminal and civil cases. In addition, our campus is home to the Cold Case Task Force, where students across campus can participate and partner with law enforcement and other agencies to investigate unresolved cases.

Outside of the classroom, you will have opportunities to mentor juvenile offenders, volunteer at local civil and criminal justice systems, conduct hands-on research, participate in professional networking and present at scientific conferences. Upon graduation, you'll be ready to take on a career in forensic psychology, clinical psychology, psychiatric counseling and crime analysis or pursue a master's or doctor of psychology.
