B.S. in Psychological Science

Study mode: Full Time |

Psychology is the study of human thought and behavior. Its goal is to contribute to human welfare by developing an understanding of why people do what they do. Psychologists study the entire range of human experience, from infancy until death, from the most abnormal behavior to the most mundane, from the behavior of neurons to the actions of societies and nations. The field of psychology is split between experimental psychologists for whom science comes first and clinical/counseling psychologists who employ a wider variety of approaches to the study of the mind.

B.S. in Society, Technology and Policy

Study mode: Full Time |

The society, technology and policy major at WPI is designed for those who wish to prepare for a career in which they will deal with this society's critical problems. Great challenges face this society and many of the major ones stem from the interplay of technology and society. Environment, energy, space, communications, education, defense, and global competition are all recognized as policy areas in which technological change is playing an important role. To address such problems in these fields, policy makers and analysts must be technically literate and familiar with the tools of analysis in the social sciences. This is precisely the background and knowledge that the society, technology and policy program seeks to provide.

B.S. in System Dynamics

Study mode: Full Time |

System Dynamics is unique in that it supports research and decision making in the social sciences through experimentation. A System Dynamics study can answer questions like "Why did this policy fail, and what can be done differently?" "What is the social, economic and environmental impact of adopting this new technology under these conditions, and how must the technology change as conditions change?" The analysis of a model yields new policy or process solutions.
