The Psychology Department Philosophy:

The Psychology Department of Inver Hills Community College seeks to foster a scientific approach to the study of behavior and mental processes. The department offers a curriculum designed to serve students who will earn an AA degree and do upper division work and perhaps, graduate work in psychology. Our classes are relevant to those who intend to continue their formal education in career programs, such as nursing and those who plan to take one or several courses at IHCC in pursuit of other learning goals. We work to promote the belief that gaining knowledge through the discipline of psychology will enhance personal lives and develop responsible and educated citizens.
