Below is a tentative listing of the Psychology courses that will be offered in the 2024-2025 academic year. It is tentative because course availability can sometimes change.  The most updated course listing for a given semester can be found at the Registrar’s Office.  Descriptions of each course, including prerequisites, can be found in the University Calendar.

You can use this list to help plan which courses you should take in each semester. If you are a major and have questions or want advice, please contact our Academic Program Manager.

Students should be aware that the Department cannot guarantee that a particular course will definitely be offered.  The most up-to-date listing can be found via the Registrar's Office.

Please note that “Seminar” Courses will replace “Selected Topics” courses for Psychology majors as of the 2024-2025 Academic Year. For information on how to register for seminar courses please contact Stephanie Blandford at psyugradadvice@mun.ca
