These topics and others, taught within a rigorous curriculum developed by our experienced faculty, help our Cleveland-area psychology degree students to develop the knowledge and skills they need to thrive in their future careers. Unlike other schools’ programs, Hiram’s psychology major program incorporates actual research into its methods and statistics course. Students learn to use and interpret research and data – skills critical to success after graduation. Students complete this course in the on-campus research lab, which is equipped with SPSS Statistical software, videotaping equipment, facilities for the study of several animal species, and more.
