Success as a Psychology Major

By David E. Copeland and Jeremy Ashton Houska

Success as a Psychology Major is an essential guide for students pursuing an undergraduate degree in psychology. Based on feedback from students, faculty, and career-preparation experts, this text helps readers maximize their college experience by honing study and communication skills, overcoming procrastination, conducting research and preparing for life after graduation. The fully updated Second Edition includes coverage of artificial intelligence (AI), discussion of the APA Guidelines for the Undergraduate Psychology Major, and two new chapters on how to build a professional network and practical advice for pursuing a career with a bachelor′s degree. Each chapter begins and ends with the story of a real student to illustrate the concepts from the chapter, and each section ends with specific "action steps" to help students, no matter their background or prior experiences, achieve their goals.
