TRINITY CHRISTIAN COLLEGE



BACHELOR OF ARTS IN PSYCHOLOGY
ABOUT THIS PROGRAM

With a psychology degree from Trinity Christian College, you will gain insights into humanity, based on the Creator’s teaching. You will learn to blend natural science approaches with studies of the human experience, selfhood, and relationships among individuals. You will not only receive a strong, liberal arts-based approach to psychological science–you will also be able to apply that knowledge to the art of understanding the self and relating to the contemporary world in all its complexity.
