Psychology Major with a Minor in History

"Obtaining a minor in history has been an eye-opening experience because it has allowed me to learn about different cultures, religions, and ethnicities. Alongside my major in psychology, my minor in history has taught me to have a greater appreciation for the unique qualities that we all carry. I can apply the knowledge that I learned when I am out in the field because I will be helping individuals from all walks of life."
