Psychology Abroad
Imagine yourself studying psychology in Vienna, Austria, the hometown of famous psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud, arguably one of the most influential contributors to the field itself. Explore the history and development of the field from a truly unique vantage point that will distinguish you from your classmates. Gain the opportunity to take interesting classes that Grand Valley doesn’t offer, such as, The Psychology of Crisis, Music and the Mind, or The Neuroscience of Fear, just to name a couple. You may also pursue internships such as Autism Care in Australia or Substance Abuse Services in New Zealand. You will be able to work toward the completion of your major/minor from nearly anywhere in the world and undoubtedly add a life-changing experience to your resume.
