Minor: Psychology - old curriculum

Starting September 1, 2004, the psychology curriculum is changing.  We have changed the major and minor requirements and some of the course numbers.  What does this mean for you?  You need to know whether you should continue to follow the OLD curriculum or if you should follow the NEW curriculum. 

Students should follow the OLD curriculum, if you:

  • matriculated (started) at UDel PRIOR TO Fall, 2004, AND
  • declared the psychology major any time BEFORE September 1, 2004

If not, please follow the new curriculum.

Credit for the lower (e.g., PSYC 325) and higher (PSYC 350) level versions of these courses may not both be counted toward the minor. Both versions may be counted toward the 124 credits for the B.A., but if both are taken only credit for the lower numbered version will count toward the major.

FOR EXAMPLE:
If PSYC 325 is taken, PSYC 350 cannot count towards the minor.
If PSYC 301 is taken, PSYC 370 cannot count towards the minor.
If PSYC 334 is taken, PSYC 380 cannot count towards the minor.
If PSYC 303 is taken, PSYC 390 cannot count towards the minor.
