Hi everyone, I'm a high school junior looking into potential colleges. I've been thinking about Cal Baptist as an option, and I'm interested in pursuing forensic psychology. Can anyone confirm if Cal Baptist offers forensic psychology as a major? I'd love any input from current or former students. Thanks!
Hello! Cal Baptist, or California Baptist University (CBU), does not specifically offer forensic psychology as a major. However, they do offer a Bachelor's degree in Psychology, which can serve as the foundation for your future specialization in forensic psychology. If you decide to attend CBU, you can study psychology as an undergraduate, and later pursue a graduate program or additional coursework focused on forensic psychology at another institution or through an online program.
Additionally, while you're completing your undergraduate degree in psychology, you could explore opportunities for internships or research related to forensic psychology to further develop your interest and gain some experience in the field.
Keep in mind that there are other colleges and universities that might offer a specialized forensic psychology program at the undergraduate level, as well as many graduate programs in this field, so it's a good idea to explore your options and find a school that aligns with your academic and career goals. Good luck with your college search!
