Abstract
Success as a Psychology Major, First Edition by David E. Copeland and Jeremy A. Houska is an essential resource for any student interested in pursuing an undergraduate degree in psychology. Built from the ground up with input from hundreds of psychology students, this First Edition answers every question a trepidatious undergraduate may have. Success as a Psychology Major opens with practical tools on how to be a successful student, walks readers through the psychology curriculum, highlights key skills to develop, and presents the various academic and career paths to take after graduation. Unique chapters on joining a research lab, professional organizations and clubs, documenting students' accomplishments, and practical tools for managing time and money provide students with resources they will use throughout their academic career. Presented in a modular format with a student-friendly narrative, this text is a step-by-step road map to a fulfilling and meaningful experience as a student of psychology.
