Psychology is that branch of science which seeks to understand behaviour and mind. Why organisms - human and infrahuman - act as they do is one of the most compelling and longstanding questions in the history of human thought. Philosophers, artists, novelists, theologians and others have sought the answer through a variety of means. Psychology uses the methods of scientific enquiry to address the question.

The areas of interest encompassed by the discipline of psychology include: How humans learn, adapt, and remember; how they change over their lifetimes; how they are affected by the presence of others; how their behaviour relates to their physiological functions; how mental processes can exhibit pathologies and how these pathologies can be treated. Our course offerings in Psychology include all of these topics, covering how psychologists go about answering the important questions in each, and what we have learned about each.

The Specialist Program in Psychology focuses on normal thought, feelings and behaviour whereas the Specialist Program in Mental Health Studies focuses on abnormal psychological processes. The Specialist Program in Psychology is intended both for students with a strong interest in the science of psychology and for those who wish to pursue graduate work in psychology after the first degree. The Specialist in Mental Health Studies is intended for students with a strong interest in pathologies of the mind and in their treatment. Students considering graduate study should plan to include the PSYD98Y3 (thesis course) in their undergraduate Program.

Two co-operative programs are offered, the Specialist (Co-operative) Program in Psychology and the Specialist (Co-operative) Program in Mental Health Studies. Admission to these programs which involve practical work experience is limited.

The Major Program in Psychology and the Major Program in Mental Health Studies are designed to introduce students to the main areas within each of these related disciplines. The Minor Program in Psychology is designed for students who are interested in a less intensive exposure to the field. Often, students wish to concentrate their studies in two areas, in which case a double Major Program combining psychology with another discipline is ideal. Programs in Mental Health Studies and Psychology cannot, however, be combined. Students particularly interested in the relation of brain to behaviour should consider the Neuroscience Programs described earlier in this Calendar.

Planning your Program in Psychology
Students should be aware that the A, B, C, D course structure in Psychology dictates the sequence in which courses should be taken, but not the year of study in which a given course must be taken. That is, A, B, C, and D do not correspond to first, second, third and fourth year. For example, it is recommended that PSYB07H3 and PSYC08H3 be taken consecutively in the two terms of second year.

Courses in the Faculty of Arts and Science correspond to A-, B-, C- or D-level of study however not all 400-series are not necessarily considered D-level. Students are encouraged to plan carefully so that they will meet their educational objectives over the years of their degree. Discussions with the Program Advisor can be very valuable in this regard.

Program Exclusion
Programs in Mental Health Studies and Psychology cannot be combined.

First-Year Students in Psychology
PSYA01H3 & PSYA02H3 are recommended in first year for students intending to pursue a Specialist or Major Program in Psychology or Mental Health Studies.

Courses in Neuroscience
Students interested in including Neuroscience courses in their Psychology or Mental Health Studies Program should consult the Neuroscience section for details.

Science Engagement Courses
For science experiential learning through community outreach, classroom in-reach and team research, please see the Science Engagement section of this Calendar.

SPECIALIST (CO-OPERATIVE) PROGRAM IN MENTAL HEALTH STUDIES(SCIENCE)

Program Supervisor: J. LeBoutillier Email: leboutillier@utsc.utoronto.ca
Course Support & Program Advisor: Hanan Domloge Email: hdomloge@utsc.utoronto.ca

The work experience provided by the program enables students to explore career opportunities relevant to their studies in mental health. Completion of the program does not, however, represent a professional qualification in psychology, which requires further study at the graduate level. Work settings may also provide students with the opportunity to observe and assist psychologists engaged in clinical practice, hence providing a broader and more informed basis for the selection of a post graduate program appropriate to the student's talents and interests. Some work settings may provide the opportunity for clinical engagement under close supervision. For information on admissions, fees, work terms and standing in the Program, please see the Co-operative Programs section of this Calendar.

   Students must choose one half credit from the D-level offerings in Psychology. Certain D-level NRO courses may be used to fulfil this requirement with the approval of the Program Supervisor.
   Note: A 300-level course in PSY offered on another campus is comparable to a C-level course, even if listed as an exclusion to a D-level course. Hence, a 300-level course may not be used to satisfy the D-level program requirement, although it may be applied as appropriate to other program requirements. Courses at the 400-level count as D-level courses.

PSYD98Y3 Thesis in Psychology
This course offers the opportunity to engage in a year long research project under the supervision of an interested member of the faculty in Psychology. The project will culminate in a written report in the form of a thesis and a poster presentation. During the course of the year, at appropriate times, students will meet to present their own research proposals, to appraise the proposals of others, and to discuss the results of their investigation. Students must first find a supervisor, which is usually confirmed before the start of the academic term in which the project will be initiated. Students will meet as a group with the coordinator as well as individually with their supervisor. This course is restricted to Specialists in Psychology and Mental Health Studies with a cumulative GPA of 3.3 or higher. Students planning to pursue graduate studies are especially encouraged to enrol in the course. Students must obtain a permission form from the Psychology departmental website(www.utsc.utoronto.ca/psych/undergraduates) that is to be completed and signed by the intended supervisor, and submitted to the Psychology Office. At that time, the student will be provided with an outline of the schedule and general requirements for the course. Students seeking supervision off campus will need to arrange co-supervision with a faculty member in Psychology at this campus.
Prerequisite: PSYB01H3 & PSYB07H3 & PSYC08H3, Psychology or Mental Health Studies Specialist, cumulative GPA of 3.3 or higher. Note: Registration in D-level courses on ROSI is tentative. This is to ensure spaces in these courses for students who need them to graduate at the end of the current session. ROSI will show your status in the course and its final confirmation.
