College graduates who did not major in psychology but who want graduate school preparation in the field should follow the structured curriculum designed with the Department of Psychology. The course plan includes the same introductory, intermediate, and advanced psychology courses taken by Columbia's undergraduate psychology majors and provides essential research experience necessary for research-oriented Ph.D. programs in psychology. Psychology courses and research experience also serve as valuable preparation for Psy.D. programs and graduate degree programs in education, management, public health, and social work.
