Study Psychology


Earn your B.A. in Psychology at USCB. Our Psychology program provides students with a broad knowledge of the principles of human behavior and mental processes. Areas of focus include critical thinking, methods of inquiry, research methodology, and the application of psychological principles to diverse areas of human behavior.

Pursue your BA in Psychology at USCB Online or In Person

USCB offers two routes to a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology: in-person classes on our Bluffton campus or 100% online with virtual instruction. The online option is for USCB students who need the flexibility to learn remotely from any location. In both tracks, students work closely with faculty on a variety of real-world research and community projects. 

For students who have earned previous college or university credits but need to complete their degree, USC Palmetto College offers an online completion program leading to a BA in Psychology.

“I was able to explore a broad variety of current topics, gain crucial skills, and get hands-on experience conducting research. Small class sizes allowed for more discussions, which created some great relationships with peers and faculty members. The Psychology Department faculty make it obvious they're rooting for you and are willing to help get you where you want to be. I'm so thankful I was able to experience USCB.”
