Psychology Schools in Virginia

Core classes at psychology schools in Virginia include human relationships, human development, personality, cognitive psychology, and human behavior. Your actual course requirements will depend both on which college you attend and which degree program you pursue. Another important factor is the goal of the curriculum: is it intended for mental health careers, social work, business, or as a general overview of the subject? While a master’s degree in psychology is required for psychologists and counselors, not every master’s degree program will meet state licensing requirements. Other job options for psychology grads include instructors, therapists, and case managers.
