It focuses on the biological, social, personal, and cognitive factors that influence behavior and covers such topics as the nervous system, sensation and perception, learning and memory, motivation and emotion, personality, development, normal and abnormal behavior, and social psychology. An Associate in Arts in Psychology for Transfer is for seamless transfer to a CSU. This option is intended for students who plan to complete a bachelor’s degree in a similar major at a CSU campus. Students should consult with a counselor to determine whether this degree is the best option for their transfer goals. Other requirements include completion of 60 semester units or 90 quarter units of degree-applicable courses, minimum overall grade point average of 2.0, minimum grade of “C” (or “P”) for each course in the major, and completion of Cal-GETC-Breadth.\n\n### Program Requirements"
