All courses in psychology taught at Biola College have for their ultimate purpose the better understanding of human nature and, through this understanding, greater adequacy in dealing with its problems. There is a definite attempt to afford points of contact with biology, philosophy, theology, history, and sociology. In other words, courses in the main are taught with constant reference to values broader than the strict discipline of psychology would require. Students majoring in psychology will find themselves with an adequate back­ ground for work in the field of counseling. It is assumed that there will be subsequent graduate work for those who expect to enter counseling as a profession. Departmental Requirements for a Major in Psychology.
