Degree Requirements

In 2006 – 2007 the newly merged Department of Psychology (formerly “Psychology, Arts” and “Psychology, Atkinson”) moved to the Faculty of Health. As such, degree requirements depend upon the faculty in which the student was admitted to York and the year in which they started the psychology program.
