I don’t want to major in Psych but I like what I learned…
In Psych you learn….
Why people behave the way they do
Why people sometimes do bad things
Understand your friends and family better
Build stronger social skills
Train your dog
….. You can apply this and MUCH more to your future career no matter which field you choose.
