Cyberpsychology builds on the same core courses as the Bachelor of Science in Science, Technology and Society, which introduces students to the relationships between society, technology and the global environment. After establishing a foundation in psychology, technology studies and research methods, students complete coursework in social psychology, social network analysis, and user experience as well as a senior thesis project of their own design.

While students in Cyberpsychology will learn and apply their knowledge in diverse areas of computer, social and cognitive sciences, we specifically aim for our students to meet the following learning outcomes:

In-depth theoretical knowledge in foundations in psychology, technology studies and research methods, as well as coursework in social psychology, social network analysis and user experience.
Application of theoretical knowledge through successful completion of a senior thesis project of the student’s own design.
Mastery of core concepts expanded from the Science, Technology and Society curriculum, including Science, Technology and Society Core coursework, Mind, Behavior & Society Core coursework, User Experience Core coursework and additional cyberpsychology electives.
Preparation for graduate degree programs in the social and cognitive sciences, as well as a wide variety of careers such as computer and information research scientist and market research analyst.
