The mission of the Associate in Arts Psychology Program at Southeastern Community College is to prepare graduates for transfer to four‐year colleges and universities to pursue a Bachelor of Arts/Science degree in Psychology and to provide service courses for other academic programs in the Arts and Sciences, Business and Technology, and Allied Health Divisions.
The courses in this degree program are selected from the Associate in Arts degree offerings but also include more psychology courses.
Associate in Arts (A.A.) programs require 44 hours of general education core coursework as well as 21 hours of additional studies to prepare students to continue their education at a four-year institution and/or enter the workplace immediately upon graduation.
Students should contact the four-year institution to which they intend to transfer for assistance in deciding which courses at Southeastern are most appropriate for their major.
Students should also consult with their advisors to help plan a program of study to complete program course work and fulfill the minimum general education competency requirements that must be met prior to graduation.
The Pre-Psychology program is designed for students who have chosen a career in research, clinical, or other related areas of psychology and who wish to transfer to a senior college or university to pursue a four-year degree with a major in psychology.
