The psychology department at Lewis & Clark gives students both a strong, scientifically rigorous base in the major subdisciplines of psychology and an exposure to applications of psychology.

Students develop competencies in conducting and evaluating psychological research, and many students publish papers and give professional presentations with faculty. In addition, students can gain experience in applied psychology through our internship program.
