Program details
Overview
The Psychology Associate of Arts Degree is a two-year, 60-credit university-transfer credential at Selkirk College's Castlegar campus covering the scientific study of mind and behaviour, including human thought, experience and action. Coursework is organized across four terms and combines psychology courses with the general-education requirements shared across Selkirk's Associate of Arts degrees. Delivered on campus, with intakes in Fall, Winter and Spring, the associate degree is a formally established, province-wide-recognized credential. Graduation requires completion of 60 credits of university-level study in selected areas with an overall GPA of 2.0. The degree is a pathway to a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and to careers in counselling, communications, business and education, and may qualify graduates for a post-graduation work permit; students continuing to another institution should confirm course transferability through the BC Transfer Guide.
