Psychology The Associate of Arts in Psychology is designed for students who wish to pursue a baccalaureate degree in psychology at a university. University specialty areas include chemical/counseling, developmental, school/educational, forensic, social, industrial/organizational, sports psychology and psychometry. Psychology coursework is beneficial for students interested in education, medicine, law, social work, business, or any of the human service fields, especially mental health, nursing, child care and criminal justice. This degree does not directly lead to employment in psychology, and career opportunities often require a graduate degree. To ensure seamless transfer, students must develop their specific program of study in close coordination with a Cochise College advisor.
