Mission Statement: The B.A. in psychology at California
State University, Bakersfield exposes students to the broad
range of perspectives, problems, methodologies, and bodies of
knowledge found in contemporary psychology. Students will
understand psychology from the perspectives of (1) a natural or
biological science, (2) a behavioral or social science, (3) an
applied or professional field, and (4) a set of experiential or
humanistic concerns. Those four perspectives are expressed
through ten goals which are areas of knowledge, skills, and
values that the faculty believe represent the primary outcomes
of majoring in psychology. To the extent that these goals are
met, students will be prepared for entry into a
psychology-related graduate program and/or for a career in a
psychology-related field.
