We want every Psychology student to graduate with a clear understanding of their transferable skills and career pathways. That’s why we offer two career preparation courses plus a co-op option.
Roadmap to Careers in Psychology (PSYC 2P01)
Gain practical experience through mock interviews, career-based research, and personalized feedback on your resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn profile.
Leveraging a Psychology Degree to Follow Your Career Path (PSYC 4P07)
Leave with confidence in your degree and skills. You’ll connect with community and business leaders through informational interviews, take part in Q&A panels with recent graduates, and build an e-portfolio that ties your experiences together.

Gain work experience while completing your degree
Co-op students complete the same courses as Psychology majors, but also have three terms (four months each, for a total of 12 months) of work placements and non-credit co-op training courses.
