Psychology Club

The Psychology Club is a student organization open to all students with an interest in psychology, regardless of major. Activities vary from year to year but often include organized trips to regional and national psychology conferences, invited speakers, community service projects, and research activities.

The membership requirements include: an overall GPA of at least 3.0, completion of 3 semesters, completion of 9 semester hours of psychology courses, a minimum GPA of 3.0 in psychology classes.
