Child Psychology studies the physical, mental and social development of children, emphasizing experiences in the family, school and community that contribute to an integrated personality.

Note: There is significant overlap between PSY 251 and PSY 250 . PSY 251 covers half the information in PSY 250  in more depth. If students have a specific interest in children, PSY 251 is encouraged instead of PSY 250 . Please check program requirements. Some programs require PSY 251 instead of PSY 250 .
